and feel free to wish me luck as I head north from RI this evening for an exciting Eclipse Day in Vermont (annoyingly with no open used bookstores to visit on the way, but hopefully the eclipse will make up for that disappointment....)

  1. I hope the eclipse is everything you want it to be. I am just on the edge of totality, but you could not pay me to get in a car tomorrow with the suspected traffic! I'll head outside to see what I can see, but am finding it weirdly hard to get motivated.

  2. Happy Eclipse Day to you. Hope the weather complies and you're able to see something, with protective eyewear of course.
