Anyone have any plans to go out and shoot the annular eclipse this sunday May 20th?

No, but maybe the transit of Venus in early June. The next time a pair of Venus transits will be visible to us will be in 2117 and 2125 - I'll be pretty old and doddery by then.

I'm much too far away from the eclipse to see it (I'm in the Eastern time zone. Basically the moon will just barely take a nip out of the sun and the sun will have set.)

But I'm DEFINITELY not going to miss the transit on June 5. I'm traveling to Hawaii to record that. I even have backup plans for my backup plans.
