Taken with my iPhone 11 at totality with no filter:

The corona was still so bright it was largely overwhelming the camera and obscured the darkened disc.

I might have another pic coming later from another guy that was there which is fairly impressive - is a closeup and shows a solar flare.

Was quite the gathering, probably 30+ people. Good food and plenty of it.

A couple of pepper seedlings have popped up, should be a bunch more shortly.

Going to change out of nice duds and see if I can go find some relatively dry areas to mow ... ;)

Drew, my dentist sent me for root canal, who said it needed pulled and sent me to oral surgeon. They gave quote about $6k for implant I think about $1k just to remove. After taking antibiotic, I haven't had another problem with it and I still have the tooth.

eclipse wasn't much here either. My sister and brother where it was full, said it got dark and street lights even came on, and could see the stars.
Here it is from 2 pin holes in paper.

Took son to his Dr. they said wait a couple more weeks before they might do PT. Swelling is going down. They took stitches out. They said they would support short term disability.
Helped son file for his benefits, he gets 30 days to submit, which include accepting STD and LTD. We decided to keep him on our health insurance for now, but wasnt sure if that was best.

Head throbbing from researching dash cams
I put up the Garmin 47 in my new vehicle sunday. So far so good. it has a small screen, much smaller than my cobra ones. Screen actually turned off as I drove, probably an option somewhere. Got to a speed camera and it warned me. I think it supports wifi, but i haven't even read the manual, I just put it on the windshield and plugged it in. It came with an SD card already installed. I have an older cobra one in the honda, and will put the newer cobra (from the wrecked subaru) in the truck so all will have a dedicated camera.

Drew - sorry about your pain. My friends wife is a dentist and I am sure she would have some unkind words for how that office treated you.

BEF - how is your son otherwise, is he in better spirits or still stressed about accident?

Got dark here too, but just clouds.

Birds and dog did not notice or care.

Seems to be ok, but will see when he tries to drive again. it's left leg that is hurt. I hope his work position stays there for him. Also, just starting out, it's a probation time, hope they don't let him go for being off.

Just discovered the Garmin 47 dashcam has magnet mount to the window, and it came with a 2nd mount in the box. copied the initial video off the camera, and I really like it. Maybe too much info, lol, it records time, lat long and speed. I believe what it displays can be configured, and probably you can keep the screen turned on. it has voice commands, and wifi. It can upload and keep the last 48 hours online if you set up networking, and keep it powered. It has a phone app, which I have not tried.
