I had a great time with Grumpy Old Guy and his super wife in a beautiful park. We thought the place would be super crowded, but we were so wrong! Practically nobody was there.

I hope you get to see any sort of eclipse someday. It stirs the soul!

We got to see the total eclipse in Indianapolis today, but I didn't have the necessary equipment to even try taking photos. I plan to enjoy the ones taken by others instead.

It's great that you got to see it! Sometimes we're so busy getting photos that we forget to look!

You know that the glare was so strong that I never saw the sunspot until I uploaded these!

It was pure chance.

Thanks for all your help!

Seeing even a partial eclipse is worth the effort.

I kept thinking it's really happening!
