As you probably know, there is a total solar eclipse on the 21st of August, here is the path to totality:

To be able to observe the total eclipse, which is a fantastic experience, on has to be in that path and have clear skies.

Apparently, the weather was fine over large stretches to the path of totality and many people could watch the eclipse.

I was on a plane to Kansas at the time and now being punished by continuous lightening and thunder, setting off the hotel's ? alarm!

Tomorrow I will look for the wonderful pictures. One was an engagement ring!

Here another image, showing the so-called "Baily's beads": the sun shines through the valleys between the montains at the edge of the lunar disc.
