I gazed up at the sky through binoculars, while wearing a welding mask, standing outside my office. Someone else appeared to be looking at the sky through a CD. The sun, oh, a beautiful glowing green orb punctuated by the black image of Venus. I'm tempted to buy a welding mask so the sun will always look like that.

I laid in a cornfield and watched the sky get dark and even that seemed amazing. What I wrote about that eclipse can be read here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/squirmelia/996.html).
