2024 Total Solar Eclipse

On April 8, 2024, we headed to West, Texas with Mig's CAP group to be right on the path of the total solar eclipse. 





We rode down with the Sharp family. 


Amanda and I have become super close and get to hang out nearly every Monday evening while our boys are at CAP.


The Texas Bucket List guy was there, too! 


Storms and rain were forecasted, but the weather was amazing! 


We had such a great view! 


A NASA specialist was there taking notes and observations during the eclipse and talked our group through everything that was happening in real time. 









It really did get dark like twilight or just past and stayed that way for over 4 minutes. 


It was one of the most amazing things I have ever personally witnessed. 





Byron worked from home that day and took his drone up during the eclipse. In his video (below) you can see how dark it got here! 



It was an amazing day and we will remember it for the rest of our lives!!
