Eclipse Viewing

It wasn't as cool at the total eclipse but fun to experience. We even had cookies for the event.

 

Protective Eyewear

I know it was only last year but the hype and the reality of the solar eclipse were so much fun. Cindy and I were ready at Smithville Lake.

SolaNoir Remnant

This amazing mural was painted last August during the SolaNoir Mural Art and Creativity Festival in the Crossroads. It's on the side of Artist and Craftsman Supply. The festival provided primed walls for artists to create solar eclipse art. This one was painted by Jonathan Munden using his daughter as the model.

Solar Sunset

I decided not to attempt to photograph the solar eclipse but just to absorb the moment. Here's a part of the 360 degree sunset at totality at 1:09 p.m. Below Cindy and I met Solar Dog, who was roaming around at Smithville Lake to remind people to wear solar glasses.
