We were so very blessed to have perfect conditions for the total eclipse yesterday.
The bro came home early so we were all together albeit for a short spell.
It was a blue sky and warm weather wonder.
The glasses the humans got free from Marion Public Library worked spectacularly (sorry!).
Of course I wasn’t stupid enough to look directly at the sun.
Ma tried to get a photo but she didn’t manage. Thankfully, Uncle Sandy MacHattie triumphed as always with his telephoto lenses and got some perfect pics.
It was such a strange sensation you could feel it getting cooler and cooler and then it got darker.
It didn’t go quite dark as midnight but when it did get like dusk everything went quiet including the birds.
We saw the sun flares so clearly. Imagine the sun as a clock with the moon as its face well at the seven o’clock spot there were burst coming out of the aurora.
It was truly awesome and we just cannot believe what we have learned through this experience.
Perhaps the most amazing fact is that in our solar system Earth is the only planet where sun and moon align to give us this fantastic show. Perhaps the only place in the universe and we saw it!!!!!!!
