April 8th, 2024

Join us for the day or for a few days!

Come to Sanctus Ranch in Pipe Creek, Texas for this epic event.  NASA's website states that the longest duration of totality is 4 minutes, 28 seconds, near Torreón, Mexico. Pipe Creek is a great spot as we will have 4 minutes and 5 seconds of total eclipse.

On Monday, April 8th, we will host a viewing party including a BBQ lunch with burgers, sausage, fries, corn in a cup, fried dough and more!  Soda, Iced Tea and Water will be available.  You are welcomed to BYOB responsibly. 

For those interested, we also have Vespers Lodge available to rent rooms.  We require a two night minimum and meal packages are available. We highly recommend utilizing our meal package as reports indicate that travel on the dates surrounding the event will be challenged. Hotel stay is available beginning Thursday, April 4th through Thursday, April 11th

As the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, at first it does not completely cover the Sun. The Sun appears to have a crescent shape.


1:31 pmTotal Eclipse Starts (4 mins, 5 Seconds)

(from NASA's website)Totality is when the Moon completely blocks the bright face of the Sun. This is the only stage of the eclipse that you can view with your naked eye. This stage can also reveal the chromosphere (a region of the solar atmosphere, appearing as the thin circle of pink around the Moon) and the corona (the outer solar atmosphere, appearing as streams of white light).
