So sorry to hear about your health.

I figure at 63, I might as well do it - the chances of me making it till 2024 aren’t all that stellar...

Plus at 200 miles, well, that’s pretty much an afternoon of driving.

I knew the media was overplaying it, I’ve been watching the Oregon road cams and there simply is no backlog.

Stay tuned and you can watch it on the Internet!

Thanks. I’ll be 61 for the 2024 eclipse, and will be within about a 2 hour drive of the totality path. At least I can look forward to that.

My health problems are not debilitating, I just have a sciatic nerve issue which won’t allow me to drive for any more than very short periods of time. The excruciating and constant pain would take any fun I could have out of the trip.
