I was so excited that this event fell on one of the days where Drew and I were together sans the little one all day. I knew I wanted to do something special with him and read that a local library had glasses and was having a viewing party. Sounded perfect.
... until we got there and there was hundreds of people in line. They were handing out papers so you could play with eclipse shadows for those of us who didn't get glasses. I was slightly disappointed until I noticed people were happily sharing their glasses around. Drew and I got to take a peak quite a few times and although it wasn't as cool as what our family/friends in Kansas City saw, it was still a neat experience. We can't wait until 2024 when we are right in the path of totality right here in Texas!
It's just amazing how many people drove long distances to experience the eclipse. Our little town in Kansas was packed!
ReplyDeleteWe didn't get much here in Wisconsin. It was already a lil dark because we had some cloud coverage. But what a neat experience for you to share with Drew. :)
