Eclipse!

Jeremy, along with many others got a chance to see an eclipse up close (so to speak).  Aunt Becky sent this picture of Jeremy and wrote--      "We were close to the path of the eclipse (it was just a little crescent and it definitely was a shade darker outside).   Jeremy and Peter were given free glasses at school and were allowed to go outside and witness it.  Ben and Miriam said their schools both were passing out glasses and Miriam got out of one of her classes early so the kids could go and look.  Even Owen and Evangeline were able to snage some free glasses t hte local eye glass place and look at  it too.  I happened to have a dentistg appointment right at the perfect moment and one of the other people in the waiting room said "does anyone want to borrow my glasses and look at it?"  She also said Uncle Ben said there were tons of students in the middle of campus when he went out to look.  Even the mascot made a showing.

When I picked up Duncan from school the first thing he did is make me put on his eclipse glasses.  He was excited that he got to look up at the sun.
