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.
