In this episode we chat with FB Eclipse Travel and Discussion group founder and eclipse chasing traveler, Janine Frances from Pennsylvania.

We chat about eclipses past and the annular eclipse over Easter Island in October of 2024... and of course, we chat about the coming total solar eclipses.

My audio file was corrupted for the last 3rd of the episode... I do believe the context works out after some creative editing. Regards, Chris

Welcome back to Totality Talks… it has been exactly one year since the Great American Eclipse of April 8, 2024. We are officially off of our hiatus! Only 491 days to go until the next total solar eclipse. In this episode we are doing our first fan interview. Ken and Megan Keifer from Mooresville, Indiana reached out to us last summer after Ken saw his 2nd and Megan saw her 1st! Recently, Ken’s waterfall photography was featured on US postage stamps. They share their stories with us and we share ours with them.
