The light is getting funny here in NW Connecticut... shadows of trees look different.

Years ago when I saw my eclipse there was a true scale of the earth moon system in an astronomy mag which gave you some idea of the distance the shadow is. This doesn't show the shadow cone but does give you an idea of the roughly quarter of a million mile distance the shadow of the moon extends to touch the surface of the earth.

The sky did clear off enough to see the show here. Everything turned an odd color, like a technicolor movie.

Couldn't help but start singing this today. It's about time America recognizes that the God of the Universe wants us to RETURN our hearts back to HIM... REvive America Lord, Revive her again!!Lyrics for The Majesty and Glory of Your Name by Tom Fettke
When I gaze into the night skies and see the work of your fingers; The moon and stars suspended in space.
Oh, what is man that you are mindful of him? You have given man a crown of glory and honor, And have made him a little lower than the angels. You have put him in charge of all creation: beasts of the field, The birds of the air, The fish of the sea. Oh, what is man? Oh, what is man that you are mindful of him?
O Lord, our God the majesty and glory of your name Transcends the earth and fills the heavens. O Lord, our God; little children praise You perfectly, And so would we. And so would we.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
The majesty and glory of Your name.

I check Saint Joseph, Missouri’s website the other day (long totality duration there.). It said that they were “prepared” for the eclipse.

We had a hummingbird come up to our window as if trying to get inside and disoriented during the middle of the eclipse here in Los Angeles

Drove 40 miles down I-5 to Brooks, Oregon to get a minute and a half of totality. Impressive but I probably wouldn’t make the effort again.
I think it’s a religious experience for some people(mostly liberals), and they’ll go to great lengths to see an eclipse again and again.
