No weird things happened to me physically... LOL...
It was strange, though, seeing the dark shadow racing up and covering us up...

If I’m still around, I’m going to see if I can make it two total solar eclipses in my lifetime (but I have my doubts about this country by then... LOL...).
(I'm still here... ;)
I was wondering if I would still be around ... back then. It kinda looks like I will be. I’m starting to make plans now! I came across this post when starting to research things ... :-) ...
How about y’all?
