Working outside doesn't count for the negatives.


I'm outside and inside and driving most of my days. Not being negative but work doesn't stop just because there is an eclipse.




Are you looking forward to it? Supposedly it's going to be crazy.


Reports of National Guard being deployed. For an eclipse. Strong indication that it's going to be wild.

I'm not excited by the media hype. MSM has turned it into a natural disaster rather than a scientific phenomenon. I went to the ERCOT site this morning expecting to see something 'news' related and there is very little to nothing. Every news outlet has a story related to it however.

Quit listening to the media.


Refuse to engage that garbage. The real news is outside your doorstep.


I'm gonna grill some beef.

You'd think the Second Coming was at hand the way people are carrying on.

There are plenty of links online showing the shadow image crossing the US. You can see exactly where you are.

This map shows how wide the viewing angle is. It kind of surprised me how wide it is.
Being in the middle gives you a little longer look see but the whole metroplex is supposed to see the total eclipse by this map. 90% appears to be Odessa on the west and around Lake Charles on the east side.

Greenville is in the path of totality. I have been hearing that the Greenville/Hunt County area is going to have an influx of 100,000 people.
Every hotel room has been booked and some are going for $500.00 a night. I hope people did some research because the crack hotels are fully booked.
A friend of a friend said they have family coming in to stay with them. Flying into D/FW but a three day car rental is going to be $1,400.00.
I'm going to stock up on groceries and stay at home.
Traffic is going to suck
