I'll spend the night at the home of friends who live in Goose Creek, S.C., just north of Charleston. Their back yard is comfortably within the totality zone.

Wade, don't use the new camera for the eclipse unless you put the appropriate filter on the lens. Else, looking through the finder you will lose the sight of an eye, while simultaneously destroying the camera. It takes only milliseconds after the end of totality, and you can't react quickly enough to save yourself. Take pix of the people you're with. Take pix of the cute duckies waddling across the road. Take pix of the kittycats freaking out. Don't take pix of the sun.
