I see you guys already posted a few eclipse pics yesterday,but I thought I'd throw in a few of ours. I shot a little bit of a time lapse at the back of Lee Little's Oliver 1850 and trailer as it got darker and at totality. I think I got them a little mixed up and have the total one second instead of third,but you can see the difference. I didn't even shoot one before it started. You get the idea though. We could see stars.
I've gotta tell you,I kinda knew going in what I would see,but I had no idea what I'd feel. I didn't get all choked up and teary eyed or anything like that,but I felt a child like sense of wonder that I haven't felt in probably 50 years. I told Lee that I felt sorry for anybody who wasn't seeing this. It truly was a once in a lifetime experience that can never be duplicated and was worth every bit of money and aggravation that it took to get there.
When we were on our way back to the cabin after the eclipse and our visit was over,I was driving through the Valley of the Three Forks and this is no lie,the darndest feeling come over me and I thought "God it's good to be alive!". That's how moving it all was.
I want to give a very special thanks to Lee and Karen for hosting us. You guys made a once in a lifetime event even more special with all you did for us. We'll never forget you guys or be able to possibly pay you back. That doesn't mean we'll ever stop trying though. Thanks for everything from the bottom of our hearts.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
