I got a ride from an aspie group member, to madras to see it. I sorta wish I had went to salem instead, as it was just as clear but not as crowded and not as hot. but the weather report erroneously predicted overcast for salem that day. it was worth the trip in any case, once one has seen totality, it changes one.

How did it change you? I must’ve only been partially changed then.

because I got to cross it off my "bucket list." I highly recommend you try any way you can, to make it to the next one which will be visible in the middle of the country, in 2024. there is just something "cosmic" about seeing totality. it is a once in a lifetime experience.

Oregonian! Oregonians rule! I'm sorry, but if you have autism and you don't live in Oregon, then what the hell are you doing?!?
