I was at work (and watched from a parking lot) but the wife and son went to my dads house and did some experiments.

No, but it's 15 degrees warmer than it was a couple hours ago.
I can't afford a pond here, maybe if I lived in Index I could.  Edit: On an interesting note, there are reports of cows in OR suddenly lying down and going to sleep when the sky turned dark.

You didn't really need anything fancy to get a view of the eclipse. I just used a small piece of cardboard with a small hole in it held over a white piece of cardboard. I noticed when we went inside, the sun shining through holes in the blinds created rows of little crescents on the wall.
I also used a sandwich of welder's glass and a piece of old exposed color slide film to create a filter that I took some pictures through. You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post. _________________ accumulator of curios & relics |

With 7x binoculars, 22x spotting scope, I think that the 1x glasses was the best. It's the most "natural" experience. There was already a semblance of "fakeness", so the spotting scope and binoculars almost detracted from the experience. |
