Eclipse Recon -
Hi, I live in the path of the total eclipse - zip code 37040...
I drove 40(?) minutes today from my house to Cerulean, KY, where the epicenter of the eclipse will be:
- There is nothing there but farmer fields and the actual epicenter is in the middle of this corn-field where it will probably be off limits.
- People are charging from $25.00 to $65.00 to park in their yards.
- There are lots of areas that are taped off with "Private Property, No trespassing" red tape and all that. Kind of gay, if you ask me.
I also drove to Hopkinsville, KY:
- Hopkinsville, KY was not as "Hoppin'" as I thought it would be.
- They have a festival there in Hopkinsville, so there are like 2 live bands.
- There is also an anniversary (I can't remember how many years ago) that little green men abducted a family on the 21st of August a while back. Maybe that's what the festival is for - the little green men festival. I can't be sure.
- Center of Hopkinsville is cordoned off to pedestrians only. Hopkinsville is normally a very boring hole in the ground and whatever history it has might only be as old as the civil war.
