Day 490 (May 20, 2012)

Make-Shift Eclipse Watcher

Halfway Blocked

Chris made his "eclipse watcher" out of, wait for it...a Coors Light box.  Shocker, right?  Well, it worked and we enjoyed the rare event.

The eclipse made for a strange moment when it turned quite dark during daytime hours.  Kona, the black lab, even had a moment where she was spooked.  We blamed it on the eclipse. 

The next day all my fifth graders wanted to share their experiences with the eclipse.  Very cool!
