1 -Suffice it to say, we made it to the Eagle Creek Campground near Doniphan, MO.  The owner met us and we were the first people here for the weekend and the eclipse, so we got our choice of spots.  The place has less than 10 sites and needs some repairing, but they're working on it.  Apparently, they wouldn't normally be opening for the season until next month, but decided to open early just for the eclipse.  The network connectivity here isn't very good, so I'll make this short for now.

13 +Doniphan is a very nice little town. We drove downtown yesterday (Friday), found the courthouse square, a flea market (for a $2 sheet to hopefully see Shadow Bands during the few seconds before totality), and a local fabric/craft shop where the owner and her mom have a great sense of humor! Afterward, we went for ice cream at the local desserts place and watched the Old Classic Cars parade get started across the street. After that, we came back home, fed the cats, and went to bed early because we were very tired!

16 +We’re having a hard time updating these pages here because there are no T-Mobile towers nearby, so we’re roaming. T-Mobile doesn’t charge more for this in the US, but they limit the amount of roaming while doing a hotspot. I (Richard) have hit the limit, so I’m writing this from my phone. I hope to find a place to upload some pics in town later today.

19 +By the way, I realize the pics so far have been way too large. I’ll upload smaller ones from now on and hope to be able to make the current ones smaller as well.
