14 +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>>https://eclipse2017.nasa.gov/exploring-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!

84 84  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.

89 89  So, we didn’t make it to town at all today. Instead, we went to meet the new neighbors who arrived last night (around 11pm!). They came from Florida! We talked and talked about everything in the world! It was amazing how much we and they are alike! We have a lot of the same interests, including rocks, gardening, butterflies, etc., the guy has allergies but otherwise is just like Richard (“boringly normal”), while his wife has some of the same pains and allergies as Kelly.

91 91  Really strange.  Anyway, we spent many hours talking and by the time we left, it was after 3pm. So, we walked to back down the road to see the horses and foals (3 of them).
