Solar flair


What a party! I hope you all enjoyed it, and stayed safe. We noticed some of you enjoying it like this:

Very classy.

I saw some of you partying like this:

Rock on, my cheap sisters.
To the silver Lexus SUV next to us: sorry we embarrassed you by laughing our tail feathers off. It's just that, well, we were watching the solar eclipse on our Kleenex.

 We spent the afternoon looking for our next home.

The neighborhood, she is gone.

Rudiments of boondocking. Is there enough clearance? [there was]


Photobucket
Oh  yeah, it's Arizona.

Get a load of the size of the trunk on that thing! And, check out the tree!

Spelunk. The sound you make when you start sliding down the hill.

Number 3, put your right leg in. Now, put your right leg out. Now, put your right leg in...go ahead and shake that all about. [Elks in the Pokey]

Look at that bunch of elk!
Not bunch, herd.
Heard of what?
Herd of elk!
Sure I've heard of elk!
No, no, AN ELK HERD.
What do I care if an elk heard? I got no secrets from an elk.

Unplugged.

Roxanne, it has been rumored that you believe you have arranged a spectacular celestial display on your birthday. Is this true?

Yes, Perez, that's true.

No, I'm not Perez, I'm Ed from RV Blogger Digest Monthly.

It felt really important for me to give back to our blog readers. They're the reason we write. The reason we're even being interviewed for TMZ...

No, I'm...

...the reason we get up in the morning and stare at the sun.

That's not really a good...

That's why, instead of raking in presents this year, I am celebrating this prime-number birthday, 51, by giving our readers an...

Uh, 51 isn't actually...

...exclusive viewing of a solar eclipse. Because of limited funds, I have to restrict the viewing to the Yukon, the Northwest Passage, and Greenland.

No, I think...

So, if you happen to be in Albuquerque this Sunday, you are in for a treat! You could also witness my birthday gift to you, an annular (once a year) eclipse, over the Grand Canyon, but that seems prosaic.  That link that I said at first, you know, aich tee tee pee colon backslash backslash...

Yeah, you don't have to do that - we've got the link.

...that site has some good ideas about where to see it, if you happen to be a Good Luck Duck blog reader.

But, isn't it true that everyone in the path can see the eclipse?

Well, sure, if they want to crash my party. Look, I'm not stingy, and even if they can't be bothered to come check out the blog, yeah, let 'em look at the sky for all I care. Nevermind that I'm sacrificing two hours of solar power for this shindig.

Thanks so much for talking to me, and I...

Here's a cat:

Wow, nice, so I have to go...

Here's a fat cat:

 Photobucket

Heh, that's great, I'll see myself out...

I'll see you at my party! Bring your #14 welder's glass! I'll fill it with sparkling cider.
