Del Rio Spiritual
Even on a cloudy day, there is something spiritual about traveling through the shadow of the moon. The weather in Del Rio, Texas, was problematical--thin high clouds and dense but broken lower ones. Here the atmosphere acts as a filter at 12:38, 1:03, and 1:50 p.m. EDT. I glimpsed totality for no more than 20 seconds with 10 x 50mm binoculars. Splendid! But by the time another break arrived, a fiber of the limb had already emerged.
