The Celestial Dragon has stopped eating the sun, and has thrown it back up. The Apocalypse is over. We have survived yet another ending of the world. Grace mentioned that it was a shame we didn't get Raptured, but secretly, I am happy about that - heights make me dizzy.
We had cloud cover for it here, for the most part... but it was a good sort of cloud cover. It provided a natural filter, which helped in looking at it (we had the special filter glasses too, for those times when the cloud cover was too thin or nonexistent), and it REALLY helped with the photography of it. During the 2017 eclipse, we had clear skies, and I burned holes in a pair of the sun specs trying to get pictures and using extra lenses trying to get the image in focus through the filter glasses.
We got a cold breeze, and the light got weird. Crows and ravens lost their damned minds and started looking for a roost, and we heard an owl start hooting up the holler opposite us. All the bugs started looking for their nests or hunkering down right where they were.
