We are outside Kansas City where the total eclipse occurred. I do have to say, it was pretty amazing. Happy I got to see it.

Mowed the grass Monday thought it was a cloud, nope it was the eclipse, don't see the big deal it's a natural occurrence, been going on forever. Just another marketing ploy to make money.

The earth will be tilted 23.5* the other way (from the sun), so the total delta is 47* and accounts for the moons shadow track from 6 months difference (August 2017 vs April 2024).
