The Great American Eclipse

Well some of us saw at least part of the eclipse. If you stayed in Sun City it was a cloud-out almost from the start. But, if you went with the Scotty Davis Tour Group you at least got to see it right up to the edge of totality. During our meeting on 10 October we will take a look at the sights of the event minus totality. We will also discuss the  astronomical events of the summer. See you there. Bring your thumb drive if you took pictures and we will take a look at some selected ones. You get to talk about your experience.
