The Greatest Show "NOT" On Earth

2017 Total Solar Eclipse at Tough Creek Campground Shoshoni, WY


Did you go?

Did you see it?

I went to view it at Tough Creek Campground Shoshoni, WY which is a part of Boysen State Park. It was an event to be experienced.  Below are a few pre-eclipse events.

 What do you do while awaiting the BIG event?


Have lunch.

Meet new friends.
Even the birds are here to view the total eclipse.
OH, NO!  They're not wearing eclipse glasses!

Go to the bathroom before all the lights go out.
Set up camp.
My viewing setup.
Setup off to the side.

Or in the middle of the crowd.

And the show begins.

Eclipse progression.

We're getting closer.

Wait for it!

WoW!

If you missed this total eclipse and are not sure what all the hub-bub was about, you can start planning now for the next total that will embrace the US in 2024.

Pre Solar Eclipse

I've heard so much talk about the solar eclipse that I decided to jump on the back of the band wagon.  It almost got right by me.  I hadn't paid any attention to it until I got here in Cody, WY.  

Well, I'm not to be out done.  I got my gear in time and will be there with all the other Sun Worshipers.  I made some test shots of a sunset here in Cody, WY in preparation of the great event.





Stay tuned for any actual photos and/or videos I'm able to capture of the actual event.

And as always stay safe and...

Happy travels,

About the Bus

I have been working on my second bus conversion since 2012.  I have been living and traveling in it since 2014.  People always compliment on the outside and seem to wonder what's on the inside. In today's world it's understandable why people don't ask to see the inside.  Even though I'm still tweaking it, I'd welcome anyone who wanted to see the inside.

The bus in 2012 when I got it

The bus in 2014 when I moved into it.


But for those who don't happen to be where I am when I am, to see more of the work that actually went into building it,  I'm working on a website to detail the process. The website is See Inside The Bus.com. The website is still under construction but some of the details are viewable now.  To get a preview of what will be there you can see some at Instructables.com

I hope you enjoy the mini tour.

And as always stay safe and...

Happy travels,

A Day at Yellowstone National Park

I took a brief trip to Yellowstone National Park and had a great tour guide, Mickey, who showed me the places to go and the things to see.  And how to spot animals. We saw the following animals all in one trip.  It's a huge park and there's no way to see the entire park in one day so there will be more to follow.
