I spent the day at the Astronomy Jamboree at Custer Institute in Southold. It is something that I attend every year. A day of great speakers on astronomy and a chance to meet up with old friends. This is Joe Rao, a TV meteorologist who is also an eclipse chaser, which means he will travel all over the world if necessary, to view an eclipse. He gave a wonderful talk about the history of his fascination with eclipses that began when he talked his father into driving 900 miles into Canada to see an eclipse when he was just a teenager!
