Eclipse Day with Amelia

Today North America was treated to an eclipse. Here in Western New York we only saw a partial eclipse, but it was still something special.  We went out to Lollypop Farm, the Humane society of Rochester and Monroe County New York, and sat with the goats.

Here I am at the entrance to their field.

The goats were smart. For the most part they stayed in their enclosure with a fan!

They sold out of the special glasses, but I had a cereal box viewer, as well as a paper pinwheel thingie, and a colander!

A nice couple let me look through their special glasses. It was an amazing sight. It didn't get as dark as I thought, even though I know it was only a partial eclipse, but it was peaceful and the people were nice. And so were the goats and sheep!
