    We weren't able to get glasses, but I made a quick and simple pinhole projector with two sheets of paper so we could watch it safely. Jen's sibling's outfit was awesome, I've almost bought that same shirt and rainbow glasses before 😂

      And she was saying about that song too.
      Should have it playing in the background.
      We saw what we could from our home in Long Island , NY.

    If you had driven West to Cleveland you would have had a religious experience. I had plans to be in Niagara Falls but heard it was going to be overcast and rainy and went to Cleveland instead. It was one of the best viewings that lasted almost 4 minutes. I feel bad that you and Jenn didn't get the full experience, it was a once in a lifetime event. I left crying.

It was the coolest natural event I’ve ever experienced! I’m still in awe! The way it slowly got dark. Then light again. Blew me away!! People here were so dismissive.

Don't worry about looking directly at the sun for a quick instant several times without the glasses, cuz I looked at the last one in 2017 for a half hour n though I saw purple n green everything for a few hours afterwards, there was no permanent damage!!! I also glanced at this one a few times quickly yesterday, I did not stare stuck like last time, n I see no problems today!!!

Knox art gallery they just redid it, President Millard Filmore’s house in East Aurora, you can also go to the Roycroft. Elbert Hubbard who created it passed away on the Lusitania on May 7, 1915. Hope this helps.

So I pray I am in good health at 79 when it will come right over my area and that I can see it. So, I got my goals and fingers crossed. Jenn, i was singing that same song all day yesterday and thinking about my mom all 6. That song came out in 83 don't know if it was spring of 83 or fall of, but it was either my junior or senior year, I played that single on my stereo I don't know how many times then when it would come over the radio I would always get the kno d k on the door telling me to turn that song down. My mom would imitate Bonnie Tyler singing it and really over exaggerated it. Lol. Love your sisters frames they fun, plus love that keepsakes photo.
