Pretty funny how many posts, links, on FB people concerned about their pets safety during the eclipse. I don't know about you all but I've never seen a animal stare at the sun, they are smarter than us humans.
Just did a Google search on the eclipse and all sorts of news popped up on the pets/eclipse wow....

I'm with you on that, and like SCG said, couple generations and no one will know or care who is taking up that prime real estate.
But... the DW wants to be burried so if I go first if she wants she can stick the urn in there with her. If she goes first I'll be fertilizer.
IMHO, we should be recycled back to the Earth one way or another, worm dirt (Not embalmed in a casket) or ash.
So we still need a stone. I'm thinking of carving our own, my great grandfather did out of a round boulder he chiseled a flattened face.
I like what DW's cousins did with her uncle's ashes, split them up in beer bottles and each got one. DW and her mother thought it was terrible. I know he would have approved and thought it hilarious.

There is a cemetery in CA that I read about that does natural burials. You cannot be embalmed, you are buried in a plain pine box with minimal hardware, and the cemetery it's self is rolling hillsides planted in prairie grass and wildflowers. They DO place a tracking device in the box with each body, so if a loved one wants to go visit with the dead, they can go to the "help desk" (whatever they call it) and borrow a tracking device programmed with the correct "plot" and wander out in the meadow looking for a slight low place in the ground. I thought that was pretty neat.

Yeah, I actually shared that one... I bet my horses will just go in the barn and hang out (thinking it's a dark storm cloud) or will completely ignore it... Or, I could have blind horses when I go out tonight... but, if I do have blind horses, it's their own darn fault...
 
nope James and I spent it in shade worked for both us pulled a yellow squash doing great guns and the last of the cabbage slugs had gone after the squash a few fed those to chickens big and small.... that yellow squash James want to cut and have me deep fry like i do zucchini

I just got home and turns out the chickens attacked the goats and sacrificed them to an angry eclipse god.

I knew I should have taken the day off to be home with them.
