    Took some pics with my phone and a short 2m video. Did anyone else get good shots? My dad's house was in the path and he saw a nice ring of fire.

    I tried to finish off the cereal fast enough but gave up when the Amazon truck stopped in the nick of time and handed us our glasses

    We had a garage sale today and kept an eye on it.
    I went to the eye doctor last week and they gave us the paper glasses..

    @texasrho83 is that the correct orientation of your pics?
    It looked like this in Dallas with a tad more coverage....
