Total Eclipse of The Sun

Everyone everywhere seems to be so excited about the eclipse of the sun today. My daughter, her husband and his parents rented a Winnebago type vehicle and drove to Nashville to watch it. There will only be a partial eclipse in Costa Rica. The clouds are starting to roll in since it is the rainy season, so we will probably not be able to see any of it.

When I was in grade school at Lamar Elementary my friend, Liz Montgomery's father, smoked pieces of glass for Liz, Brenda Reeves and me to watch the eclipse. I will never forget it. It was such a big deal for three little girls to experience together. I wish I had a picture of the three of us that day. People just did not take many pictures back then. This was taken of Brenda and me at my 6th birthday party. I am on the left and Brenda is on the right.

God bless everyone today, and remember to use the correct eye protection!

Pura Vida!
