On 8 April 2024, Vanessa, Aline, Karen, and I drove up to Newport VT to try to catch the Total Eclipse. The original plan was to fly to Texas for the typically clear weather. Instead, the forecast for Dallas was for clouds so last minute change of plans. That’s how we ended up at the Walmart parking lot in Newport VT with at least a thousand other people experiencing the same miracle. What an amazing time. The following pictures are composites constructed from pictures that I took that day.
