    It’s so cool. The inner geek in me comes out, and I think about wanting a telescope. I heard you can see Saturn’s rings tonight with one.

    Absolutely amazing. I was enthralled with the eclipse. We headed out and shared it with our children and our neighbours. The best part was my Dad was watching up North at the exact same time. Almost like we were together even though we weren’t.

    I didn’t take a single photo, but wasn’t it awesome?! So amazing, awe-inspiring, and way cool. Eclipses always make me think about the people centuries ago, who thought the earth was ending, apocalypse had arrived. I can totally see why they would have thought that…

    That’s my daughter’s new word, “moon.” Since that’s the case I made sure to take her out to say goodnight to the moon last night before bed. It was spectacular.
