I reached my 250th post on my 1 year anniversary of joining CCF yesterday which was an unplanned coincidence. I'll make this contest a little simpler than last time.

Rules: The contest doesn't start for nearly 24 hours which is 9pm Eastern Daylight Time. Any post before Tuesday at 9pm EDT will not be counted. Read previous sentence.

The question: What National Park do I plan to be in next year during the Total Solar eclipse? There's not that many possibilities, so make your best educated guess.

The first person to guess correctly will get a 1964 Roosevelt dime, a 1942 Mercury dime, and a 1913 Barber dime (has a bend). Thank you everyone, happy guessing.

Update: I corrected my statement of using Eastern Standard Time. I'm actually in Eastern Daylight Time which is 4 hours behind Universal Time / Greenwich Mean Time.

The contest begins in 45 min. If you're on PDT, you're 3 hours behind me, so 45 min from now should be 6pm for you.
