Eclipse

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Eclipse

Post by Jonathan »

If you are in North America, get thee to a window, there is an eclipse, and within the next half hour or so it should be a full one.

It's pretty awesome. I've been videotaping it for quite a while now.

There's only a sliver left, so if you haven't seen it yet, you should go now.

Yeah, I saw it at 8:20 or so. Then I figured that was good enough. :D

Ha... I totally saw it on my way to Bible study and I was like, "Hm, that looks like an eclipse... weird." And just kept driving.... lol. Good to know I'm not crazy.

I stood outside for half an hour with my brother and neighbors. It was amazing. I love eclipses. They put everything into prospective for me. :anxious:

I missed actually seeing it, so your video was a nice (and way easier!) way to see the eclipse! Thanks, Trent. \:D/

I couldn't find the moon due to clouds or houses or trees or something. :(

It's falling apart, not about! See, it rhymes with heart and "falling apart" is an actual idiom that makes sense. ;)

The remaining part of my family, and a guest all stood around our huge bay window and watched the moon turn red with hot chocolate and churros. \:D/

It was a lot of fun, but took way too long. Good thing I had a trusty candle and my book. :anxious:

OOHH! Churros!! I want some!!! :mecry:


The only reason I saw the eclipse, or even knew about it for that matters was because hubcap told me :anxious:

Yeah...I never read the news or anything like that, or I probably would have know about it before hand. Just the same...it was very awesome! :yes:
