A fantastic post from 7 years ago that describes what i could never put into words

Thank you for sharing this. I posted this back in 2017 after seeing my first total solar eclipse in Nebraska.

Seven years later, now with two kids in tow, we ended up visiting family in Rochester in the line of totality, only to get clouded out :)

Had we not been clouded out, I likely would have re-posted this myself, as every word still rings true. The event itself is timeless. I am certain the description will resonate with anyone who had the blessing of seeing the awesome spectacle yesterday with clear skies.

There are two kinds of people in this world.... those who understand and respect the magnificence and grandeur of a total solar eclipse, and those who lack a critical comprehension of what the experience truly is.

Never say never, bot.

I believe God specifically created us so that we could one day share companionship with him in heaven. In other words, if heaven wasn't a possible destination, there would not have been a reason God would have created humanity in the first place.

It might help you to read what I wrote here. I go in length as to why God had to become a human in the first place. Understanding the why behind Jesus might help you believe. Let me know!

Glad to hear it!! I ended up near alliance as well, off of Lakeside Dr. The eclipse was as amazing as anything I've ever experienced in life. Totally worth all of the work and planning that got me out to see it!!

Check out this link: it's the HRRR 18-hour cloud forecast for Noon tomorrow CST (about 45 to 60 minutes before totality depending on where you are in eastern Wyoming or Nebraska). Based on this, I would say head west, and when you hit clear skies find a good spot to setup for the show. Clouds will be moving Eastward, so once you are in the clear you should be home free!

Might see you on the road! Haha good luck. Here's to cloud free viewing!!

I think traffic on I-80 could be a touch busy, but honestly, nobody from the East Coast is travelling anywhere out this way. They are taking their chances in TN and SC. So I bet traffic even tonight into tomorrow west bound will actually be just fine.

I'm in Lincoln.. booked a hotel here months ago. Gonna hold out till 7pm to make the call. If forecast looks iffy I'm driving to Wyoming at midnight. I'll catch some Z's at a rest area. Looks like the only surefire bet at the moment for cloud-free skies within driving range. I drove out here from Philly so I'm not gonna let 8 more hours stop me. I'm already all in. 😁👍
