Solar Eclipse

Well, today was the big day - the solar eclipse everyone has been waiting for. From where we live,  in southern Ontario, the moon would only cover 69% of the sun, but we thought we'd go down to Frenchmen's Bay for a wider view of the sky.      Coco came with us.

There were lots of people there, including some kite boarders, who had beached their
kites, because with the dimming sun, all the thermals they needed had disappeared.

Jan had made a simple pinhole 'camera' box, and we could clearly (and safely) see the
eclipse.  Coco had some special eclipse glasses, and made himself comfortable...

At the peak of the eclipse the light was somewhat dimmer, like it usually is in early evening.....

However, it wasn't quite as dull as in these pictures. It seems that now my horizontal images are turning up dull and gray too. Hopefully my son will get the Weebly issues sorted out soon.
