Hello Everyone!
Well, Monday is a BIG DAY! I am
sure that you have heard that there
is going to be a total eclipse today.
The last one was on June 8, 1918.
Of course, not everyone will see a
total eclipse, some will see a partial
eclipse and some will not see anything.
Where are you in the path?
We are right there in the
100 % area. Should be
interesting for sure!
Our school district provided
appropriate eyewear for
students and staff. So we will
be prepared and Mr. Ken got
his glasses from our friend.
They are the right kind too.
The eclipse will begin here
around 11:41 and be at it's
peak at 1:08 then finish around
2:45 ish.
Our kids will observe from inside
due to the fact that most will not
leave their glasses on and we as
staff will rotate outside to view
the happenings. The rest of the
building will go outside with
their grade levels and watch the
happenings.
This has become a BIG event
all over the metropolitan area.
Some schools are closed, there
are watch parties and a lot of
kids will be absent tomorrow
to be with their families. Many
have traveled from all over to
see the eclipse.
Can't wait to see what takes
place. If I get pics, I'll post them.
I believe NASA will have some-
thing on their website for those
who can't see it in their area.
Be safe if you are in the viewing
area!
See you Wednesday!!
~Keep on Dreaming~
IN Baltimore we will have an 80% eclipse and it will start around 1;20. Sally and I are planning to view it from the beach. : ) Have fun today.
ReplyDeleteA fun day for sure!!

Enjoy your viewing!!!
ReplyDeleteWe are only to get about 70%. But the whole thing, will be on tv.
And I don't want to look at IT. Just observe how everything else in nature appears, when it is happening.
Gentle hugs,
Luna Crone
Welcome and thanks for visiting!
DeleteWe had a great time with the viewing.

Hope you had good viewing for it! We were about 80% or so. Couldn't see much due to the clouds!
ReplyDeleteWe had a storm that morning so we thought we wouldn't get to see anything but the sun came out just in time!!!
DeleteM : )
We were in the 89% and it was mostly cloudy, but we did get a couple of peeks when there was a break in the clouds. Have a great rest of the week!
ReplyDeleteGlad that you had some peeks and breaks.
DeleteSuch a cool event.
