Special thanks to: Pima College - East Campus especially Jeannette Studer and Susan O'Hagan who kept my paper work straight. Southwest Airlines who supplied the free transportation , Ann Archer who supplied the digital camera and especially my special observing assistant, my father, Guido Iadevaia.



I ended up in RI because of the three potential East Coast sites (Ft. Lauderdale, FL, Rayleigh-Durham, NC, Nashua, NH and Providence, RI) I had selected for a possible observing site the weather  forecast for Providence was the best the day before the transit. Thanks to Southwest Airlines I was able to get a flight into Providence the day before the transit.
