Eclipse fun

Ok, so I'm out of order with my posts but that is ok. On August 21st we headed on a family adventure to Wilber, NE to experience the Eclipse. Dave had done some searching to find out where exactly he wanted to go. We headed to Omaha on Sunday to spend the night, we wanted Lincoln but there weren't any hotel rooms available! Monday we got up and got on the road and started the drive and what a traffic experience it was. It took us an extra hour of driving to get where we wanted to go as we were driving with everyone else who wanted to see the eclipse as well. We found a park in Wilber and waiting for the BIG moment. It started cloudy but cleared just in time for us to see it. What a cool experience! The boys had fun and said it was one of Dad's best adventures yet.
