Thanks for posting; I had previously only seen a partial eclipse.
“I had previously only seen a partial eclipse.”

I remember the total solar eclipse in 1970.
A few friends and I had flown down to the Gulf coast for some fun, and decided to fly over to Perry, FL to be at the “capital” for viewing the total eclipse.
I landed at the old military airfield where dozens of amateur astronomers were set up with their telescopes and radios tuned to WWV time standard.
It was all quite festive and exciting, except for one small detail...It was a TOTAL overcast sky for the whole day.
