I stayed home with the kids, but my wife and my mom went down to Sidney, Ohio and stayed overnight to see it. They wanted to go to the Armstrong space center in Wapakoneta, but at 7AM there was already a line to get in, so they ended up at the lawn of the old courthouse in Sidney.

A total eclipse is pretty weird. It gets *dark*, the street lights came on in Sidney. The shadows and light look strange before and after. The Sidney business association had a tent and was playing music and passing out free glasses.

Anyways, my wife said Sidney is a neat small town. Some nice bars and restaurants, and one of the last bank buildings Louis Sullivan designed.
