    It's pretty cloudy in the Nashville area, which is OK, as this as close as we got to totality (this time!)

    Here in the Pacific North West we don't need no special glasses.

    Not only do we have a heavy cloud cover, we get about a 15% eclipse.

    I've seen a few of them and even have some slides of one I saw back in the 1980s. Just not sure where they might be at the moment.

    If you are old enough to remember The Treasure of the Sierra Madre this came to mind while reading this post:

    Special glasses? We ain't got no special glasses.
    We don't need no special glasses.
    We ain’t gots to show you no stinking special glasses!

    I went to Indiana to visit family and see the eclipse.. the full eclipse was pretty cool. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I liked it a lot. In Utah, we've had two eclipses in the past few years, but this one was the only one I really took the time to see.
    Yes, I have 3 phase!
