Total Eclipse of the Sun Day August 21, 2017

Total Eclipse of the Sun Day August 21, 2017            Victoria to Port Angeles                       Easy day today.  Up and on the road at 0600.  Easy crossing of the Strait of Juan de Fuca, no high wind and no fog!  Consumed apples, oranges and an avocado for breakfast so we would not have contraband on board to declare.  Tied up to the Custom’s dock to clear into the states.  “Do you have anything to declare?”  The Customs and Boarder Patrol Agent had to focus so he would not roll his eyes as Carl rattled off what I had written.  “Frozen fish, cooked crab, lettuce, onion, celery, carrots, one yellow pepper, one unopened bottle of wine and about a half a bottle of bourbon.”


Our location is definitely not in the “path of totality” but we did not have to drive through hours of traffic hordes either.  I have for you today only one photo.  The totally un-awesome safe selfie plus eclipse taken aboard ExTerra at the Custom’s dock, Port Angeles at the local time of totality.
