Eclipse August 2017

We enjoyed the eclipse on Monday.  We didn't get totality, but we did get 98% of the sun covered.  It was surprising how light it still was outside. It did get cooler outside.   Inside the house it was noticeably darker during the eclipse.  Neil had meetings for the beginning of the school year, but got out in time to come home and watch with us.  We enjoyed watching together.  David, Dallin and Neil enjoyed watching the longest.  We watched the start of the eclipse much more than the end.  It was a great family experience.  The shadows on the sidewalk were really neat to see. We also tried watching through a pinhole camera.  It worked, but wasn't as easy or as impressive as the eclipse glasses.
