Oh, hi. It's the lady that's last aboard the plane. On her way to see an eclipse, here we go.

So if you listen to last week's Heliology episode, highly recommended, it's on the sun and solar

eclipses, you may know that I missed the 2017 Eclipse because I stayed home to work on and launch the podcast,ologies.

I had some friends who went, people cried, it's been nearly seven years of regret. Then in March I had this big surgery and I wasn't sure if the results would yield me a big bummer diagnosis. When it came back clear I told myself perhaps Ward we should go on a few adventures but

before this adventure huge thank you to everyone on Patreon who supports the making of

the show at Patreon.com slash ologies you two can join for one dollar a month and perhaps hear your

name and your questions on the show also thinking to everyone supporting ologies

by wearing merch from ologies merch.com you can also always support the show for zero dollars just by leaving a review such

as this nice one from Nyshabeth who wrote I would love to hear an offshoot ofologies

Ali's adventures with some of the peeps that you have interviewed that have invited you to the field.

Bears, pelicans, bugs, adventure, Alley. Nishbeth, you have no idea how timely that is,

because you're about to come with me to a lot of different places right now.

Thanks for writing that.

Thank you to everyone who's ever written a review.

I've read it.

So if you listen to Heilology from last week, you'll have a lot of the context and lead

up to why this field trip eclipse episode was so important for me to make and of course that

episode is linked to the show notes as well as my field trip mystery surgery

episode if you listen to that they'll understand why as soon as I got a green light

I decided to have maybe have a little bit more fun after a rough couple of years.

So I booked a ticket to see the eclipse. It did not go according to plan. Did I make it?

Was it fun?
