Amazing!

Even though I am usually in bed and asleep by 9:00, I decided it was worth the time up to see the eclipse. It was a warm breezy night (about 35) so no clouds to block the view. I only have a digital camera, but got one or two suitable pictures. Watching the moon slowly be covered by the shadow was very cool. I thought a bit about the ancients, and how they would feel watching this happen. Mysterious goings on, and on one of the shortest days of the year!

Nice photo. Sadly, we had a snowstorm so we saw nothing.

Great pic! It was amazing, wasn't it? I looked out the window from time to time, when I could convince myself to get out from under all the quilts on my chair. It's COLD by the window.

We heard about this on the news. They said we could see it, but of course someone wasn't thinking about the cloud cover. Was that person the teleprompter writer or the newscaster??
