Avoiding the Obvious

Eclipse? Right, well that is just one more event to prepare for on a work day...

Could be nice to get out of the building and find a quiet spot to observe it...

Love to see the tourist traps again with all the crowds I expect to be there...

I have not been there in at least...five months (the weather was really nasty this winter:

Permafrost over the boardwalk; chill ripping through our bodies).

So, I will be back there, glasses and all, and wait to see how it goes down.

Everyone has their own reasons for not missing this one. What are mine?
