Solar Eclipse

Written by:

In the wee hours of June 10, there was a solar eclipse. Normally the sun wouldn’t be visible in the middle of the night, but we’re in our 24-hour daylight period, so we got up at 4am to go to the viewing party.

Unfortunately, it was super cloudy so the eclipse wasn’t visible.
