Three days and counting…
The Moon is slowly making its way to the east for its date with the Sun. Today is 3 days before eclipse. At 5:58 am, well before sunrise, the waning crescent was high in the eastern sky not far from Venus. Our plan is to drive south into central Missouri with our daughter and two grandchildren. It will be fun to share this unique experience with them. News reports show traffic is already a problem in some areas as people position themselves for their best views. It should not be an issue for us.

It sounds like fun!
I’m so jealous x
We traveled to Europe in 1999 and enjoyed the eclipse. I guess it is our turn this time. 🙂
