Hey everyone!
We would love to keep the planes rolling into M91 for Monday's eclipse but math and the laws of physics are telling us that we are without a doubt filled to the gills.
However, the Wingnut crew doesn't want a single person to miss the chance to see what is sure to be an experience like no other, so we wanted to share a list that an incredible booking agent made when she was looking for a place for her client.
We hope this helps and can't wait to hear about your eclipse day the next time you stop by and say hi to us here in beautiful Springfield, TN.
Stay safe and blue skies,
- The Wingnuts Crew
