Kent was in line for a total eclipse today. We decided to stay away from crowds and just experience it on the deck. Below is a photo Jack took at about 3:00pm.
The birds stopped chirping and you could hear the crowds in downtown Kent screaming. Below is some of the equipment Luke brought for the occasion. Yes, he put the glasses over the lens.
It was a slow roll at first but toward the end it went fast.
Mary, whatcha lookin at?
Of course we had snacks and drinks!
Where are my protective glasses?!
The neighbors have younger kids and brought them out for a party in the front yard.
The city of Kent recently painted this mural down by the river.
Even more rare is the cat eclipse...
