my total eclipse
I did it. I wanted to be under the total solar eclipse and earlier today I did it. I am in Holton, Kansas. The weather today wasn't that great and that was a disappointment since I tried to pick a good location to view the eclipse. However (thankfully), just at the very moment that the moon covered the sun, a large hole broke in the clouds and the eclipse was able to be observed. I saw the corona and then the diamond ring effect appeared. It happened so quickly. I took one quick picture but actually the joy came from the observation of the eclipse just by looking at it and enjoying the moment. I watched as the crescent sun appeared and eventually the entire sun was visible. And then it was over. For now, anyway. There will be another total eclipse in 2024 and I want to see that one, too. It is a really awesome experience.
