TN Solar Eclipse 2017



We made crescents through the colander! Look!! :-0





 Our delicious cookies and Cake!!



Emily and Friend
                                      getting ready for the 2min. 39sec. Total Eclipse!!! Anyone for a moonpie??!


 The sun started to get covered up by the moon, so we had to have our glasses on to see it in the sky.

 LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 This picture was taken by a friend of Rob's, with his professional camera- So Awesome!!!!!

 This is what happened when the moon covered the sun up completely-dust outside-the cicada bugs got confused and started to talk to each other!

Had a great time swimming while the eclipse receded back........something we all will remember for a long time. We heard the next total eclipse will not occur in TN for another 400+years, so we'll be going up to Southern IL for the next one in 2024-Carbondale is not that far away!!!!!!
