Anyone going to watch the Eclipse tomorrow?

I am most likely going to drive down to Hopkinsville KY tomorrow. I know a bunch of people that are going to Carbondale, IL.

I'm in Omaha, NE, planning to leave shortly to drive down to Beatrice, NE, with 100,000 of my closest friends. Unfortunately, there are heavy clouds right now, and it's iffy whether they will break by mid-day.

Very cool. I got lucky as I had a business trip planned anyway so only driving an extra 100 miles to see it.

Awesome shots. I will post in that thread too. I got lucky and weather was fantastic. It was an believable experience being able to see the total eclipse. I don't think a partial does it justice.
