Just some photos of Summit Lake State Park, from where Emily and I watched the eclipse in April (which I'd imagine most people have already forgotten about). It's more or less in east-central Indiana, about a two hour drive from where we live. The park, not the eclipse.

There is, not surprisingly, a lake. Fishing, kayaking, swimming, the whole enchilada. There's probably someplace close by to get enchiladas, too.

 

 

To be honest, after spending all that time roaming across Indiana while we wrote Hoosier Hysterical, we couldn't remember even hearing about Summit Lake S.P. It was, naturally, packed when we are there, but on a non-eclipse day I'll bet it's a great place for a trail hike or a day on the water.

 

Just don't upset the area with fowl language.

 

It's hard to tell, but those two big limbs on the water were covered with turtles.

 

 

The 60s called, they want their clothes back! Actually, these people were very nice, and their dog and I fell in love with each other. He's a leaner--dog lovers will understand.

 

 

 

Remember: You can read outdoors, too.


 

 Yes, that's right. With my very own camera I took these photos during the eclipse (you probably heard about it), capturing ... something. Something Big Government doesn't want you to know about. Or maybe Big Pharma. Or Big NASA, I don't know--someone.

 

 But they couldn't hide it during the eclipse, which, as you know, is when elephants riding the giant turtle that holds up the Earth come out to change the light bulb. Too many cameras these days, thanks to Big Kodak. In the end the conspirators shot themselves in the Big Foot.

 

 

The hidden planet Nemesis is revealed! Those blue dots are probably its moons, Neme and Sis.  

 

 

Or maybe not: The Earth has more than one Moon! And more than one sun, judging by the direction of their shadowed areas. This is one crowded solar system.

 

 

An out of control UFO! Probably piloted by Elon Musk, from his home planet, Nemesis. Or maybe it's bringing Elvis back, that would explain why its hips are gyrating.  

 

 

The Eye of Sauron! Tolkein was right! Or maybe it's Cthuklhu emerging. But I pick Sauron, which is easier to spell. 

So there you have it. We weren't just taking in a temporary totality too long: We were exposing the secrets Big Big didn't want you to know. And that's big.

 


 

Remember: Whether you're watching the sky or reading, pull the car over first.
