Solar eclipse!

 It has been 31(or 34) years since the last time solar eclipse went across North America. The whole country was excited. Some people traveled hours (and thousands came from other countries) to get into the path of totally. Grandpa and Grandma Anderson were lucky enough to live in the path!
Here in MD we had 80%. That was fun to watch. We made a pin hole box to view the eclipse in. (I don't understand the science of how that worked, but it did!) It was really fun to watch.
Grandpa and Grandma experienced two minutes of darkness and the temperature dropped 22°.
