The eclipse has begun here on the Left Coast

Neener, neener…we will get the full umbra again in 2024. Probably won’t be as hot and muggy, either.

Outstanding shot!

I don’t know where this one came from … been reposting it here and there today…sorry if I posted it here already.

Ted Hesser with Tommy Van Smith and Martina Tibell at Smith Rock State Park.
Yesterday at 2:40pm · Terrebonne, OR ·
Best view in the house… it took 4 days of planning and hard work to capture this shot. My girlfriend @martinatib and good friend @thistommysmith climbed the route twice, in scorching heat, to nail the positioning. But we nailed it!

That is an amazing shot, Terrebonne is close to Bend, which is a burgeoning upper end retirement haven. IN the foothills of the Cascade Mountains on the dry (ie desert) side of the state. Smith Rock is an edifice a craggy miniaturized Grand Canoyonesque rock formation extremely popular with hikers and rock climbers.

Oh and PS Smith Rock and The Yaquina Bay bridge are 183 miles apart.

Smith Rock

Wow. Nice.

(edit: yoink)

Not 100% certain, but I think that eclipse shot was of “Monkey Face” I thought that profile looked familiar.

Yeah, that rock looks like a good candidate.

I’ve driven thru Bend, long ago, and always thought it would be a great place to live.

Oregon is a very beautiful place.

I visited Seaside with my lady a bit ago.

Weirdly enough, in Trump’s right hand there is the glasses.

The picture taken about 20 seconds after this is of him looking at the eclipse with the glasses on.

But wait, there’s moar!

They know.:grin:

Well, if anyone would know it would be you Apey.:smile:

And yet, Tucker Carlson… (see above)

That’s a fake shot, you can tell by looking closely at the pixels.

WTF? Is Tucker even more insane than anyone ever thought?

BTW, there was nothin to see here. No. thin’.

I know. Fuck crossing the Delaware, fuck ending slavery, fuck giving a speech sporting a bullet you took that day, this is the most badass of EVARY president EVAR.
