NOW LISTEN UP! PUT YOUR GLASSES ON AND LOOK UP!

For readers who like me are concerned about the lack of laws and regulations to curb the development of Flood Plains, or Land Fills that are placed on the banks of rivers, or the gun industry that flaunts its bullying of shortsighted legislators, lets take a breather and witness something truly historic.

A total Solar-Eclipse will ocurr on August 21 of 2017. Though we have been able to sometimes view parts of the route taken by other eclipses, this one will pass directly above us and take a path from Seattle in the West Coast pass over the Mid West and go on to the East Coast at
supersonic speeds.

Plans for this event have been underway for sometime. NASA has mapped the path the Solar-Eclipse will take. Organizations, cities and states, tourist bureaus and hotels in the path of the Eclipse are already making plans to accommodate the number of people who will want to put on special viewing glasses to see the event themselves.

The last time a total Solar-Eclipse crossed the land we now call America was on June 13, 1257. If you miss this one in 2017, you will have to wait  three more Centuries for the next one to go by.

Oh, and by the way if you are planning a big outdoor event for August 21, 2017 and are in the viewing area of the total eclipse, better check out the availability of Port-a-potties as they are
already in short supply.
