My picture of the eclipse isn't so good. Looks like a vortex is trying to suck the earth in.
Tried again with similar results.
Guess I will stick to pictures on the surface of the earth. We had a beautiful day with mostly clear skies. Everywhere I looked heads were back looking up at the sun. Someone spread a white sheet on the ground under the apple tree. During the eclipse it was rumored that crescents would appear. I didn't see any.
This boy decided to elevate himself on a stump to watch.
I tried again as a cloud obscured the brightest part of the sun. Note the jet stream from a plane passing by. Wonder what it looked like up in a plane .....
As the sun was coming back into view the skies were smudged dark, almost like a storm was brewing.
I had heard about a dramatic change in temperature, but it only dropped 2 degrees. I was disappointed. It was hot and muggy here. My park is still full, though a few people left early. I would say we had a successful weekend ..... but I didn't read the reviews yet .....
I am ready for a long rest. The past four days have been 12 hour days. I have just one hour left, and I will be going to bed!

Well, they had an eclipse, like it or not.
Eclipse???????????????
Oh yeah there was an eclipse, just not here down under
Out in Oklahoma, The Pony said that he saw crescents during their partial (84% ?) eclipse. He sent a picture of the shadow of his hand on the sidewalk, saying that the crescents between the fingers of his spread hand were not well-represented by the photo. Cell phones can't do everything!
Looks like you had a splendid event at the campground. Now you can rest. Maybe.
