An Eclipse Update

We had 88% eclipse coverage here in our area.  Since it first started, we have been going out and checking on it with our special glasses that Jacquie gave us.  When inside, we've watched the NBC News coverage.  So we had things covered.  There is still a little over an hour to go before it is all over here, but we will keep checking.

Fascinating!  We both remember making the shoe box pinhole deals for eclipses when we were kids.  These events don't happen too often, so it was wonderful to be able to see it.  I plan to keep the glasses for the next one!

When it was at the maximum here, we noticed some very interesting shadows on the patio.  Our very own batch of eclipse crescents!


Finnigan was especially interested in the TV coverage and sat like this for a while.


And........


Stay safe and God Bless America!
