After the fantastic experience of the partial eclipse I was really looking forward to the transit of Venus.  Alas, clouds are in our future.  Which is hard because New Mexico needs the rain so desperately, but I really wanted to see this event since I’m not going to make the next one.

I’m trying to figure out if I could drive far enough west to get out from under the cloud cover.  Probably not and still do all the things I’m supposed to do today.  Like vote in the primary, and write and ride.

I may just chuck being responsible and head toward Gallup.  But I better check the radar first.
