My eclipse plans are now set: driving north to Millinocket, ME to setup at the Veterans Memorial Park in town. A few of my astronomer friends will be there with telescopes. I am planning to bring a newly acquired SvBony 105mm refactor that I bought used recently but haven’t had a chance to use. A friend loaned me his Celestron AVX mount to use with the scope since I don’t have any mounts being a dobsonian telescope owner. I have a 4″ solar filter which loosely fits, but I’ll tape it down.
Also bringing my Canon M50 camera and tripod. No solar filter for it but I’ll just take photos of totality.
My mom and oldest brother will be joining me on this trip, which I am super excited about.
