I could watch the whole show through the living room door. As it was,
I caught occasional glimpses and took note when the moon was
completely swallowed up. Way too cold for ole Jer to haul the dogs and
lawn chairs out to watch for real. It would be cool to experience the
eclipse from a nice warm beach on the ocean ... have a bonfire and
picnic before, then settle in to watch the moon disappear. I could go
for that. Freezing to death in the backyard in February? Not so much.
