Ashley and I traveled to West Texas to view the Annular Solar Eclipse of May 2012. After chasing the previous night in southwestern Oklahoma, we stayed in Childress. The leisurely 3 hour drive would pass pretty quickly in anticipation of the eclipse.
We drove down towards Plains, TX to find a spot on the Texas/New Mexico border. We ended up settling at a spot just north of US380 on the border.
