Memorable Monday
Solar Eclipse

Sunday, there was a solar eclipse.  The news channel called it the "Ring of Fire".  Since this is a solar eclipse, we couldn't look directly into the sun.  There were several ways to safely view the eclipse.  The view from a telescope is the best!!


This is the way that we viewed the eclipse 

I remember when I was in elementary school and there was an eclipse during the day.  The teacher told us not to look directly at the sun.  Guess what I did - looked at the sun.  My vision isn't all that good and I blame that day I looked at the eclipse.  I know that's not the case, but I got to blame it on something.
