Well, here I am, back with an update!
I am currently in the great state of Texas, awaiting the eclipse. Yes, I flew here, and, yes, it was uneventful.
Instead of bringing that Wellness Company Emergency Kit, I tossed the bag with my prescriptions for IVM and HCQ into my camera backpack. Sorry, but I’m already hauling a lot of gear for shooting the eclipse tomorrow, and I had to cut weight any way I could.
And now here I am, and it’s Sunday morning just east of Dallas. I just returned from photographing a field full of bluebonnets and I’m about to edit the photos.
Thank you, everyone, for your input! And enjoy the eclipse, wherever you are.
