(Note to self: next trip get <a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlink.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Starlink<\/a> and bypass crappy internet service.) At any rate. we had a nice overnight at Abilene, TX last night.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight and for the next few nights we are where we expect to view the <a href=\"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/features\/eclipse-countdown\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">total solar eclipse<\/a> on Monday. We&#8217;re all settled in and relaxing after another tedious driving day with gusty crosswinds most of the way from Abilene to here.<\/p>\n<p>The outlook for clear skies on Monday for the eclipse isn&#8217;t looking too good as of the current weather forecast; mostly cloudy and possible rain. We are optimistic that we will be able to see some of the totality with breaks in the clouds possible.<\/p>\n<p>Verna and I will be spending the weekend with our usual emphasis on dining, albeit on the road. The menu currently features entrees of Steak Salad (Filet Mignon, of course) and BBQ Country-style Pork Ribs. We hope y&#8217;all will eat as well this weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image: Flat Creek (left) and RV site 58 (right). Click to enlarge.
