The eclipse was very beautiful yesterday. I do not actually know if it was beautiful; I value my vision so I did not look at the sun with all its glory.

Some students were lucky enough to experience the eclipse at its best and brightest at the end of third period. Some saw I through special glasses and others saw it through pinhole camera-like boxes. Mary Palmer used the classic method of poking a hole in a piece of paper, putting it up to the sun and seeing the moon's path on another piece of paper below. Ben Mongerson and his wife made a few of the pinhole boxes for the students to see the eclipse safely.
