I got to see the eclipse of the sun here in Oregon in 2017. Wow!!! I was not prepared for what a phenomena this would be. The birds literally all stop chirping… There is this huge AWE…. that is inexpressible and undeniable, and you can feel the entire earth around you in this perfect hushed silence, as everyone witnesses this beautiful miracle. It went from people, drinking beer, cheering and kids running around being kids…

To this incredible beautiful moment in time, as if we were all holding our breath at once. And then… Everyone burst into applause at the same time. It literally makes you feel like crying.

It’s so wonderful. One of the best experiences of my life I wish I had the money to travel for the eclipse coming in 2025. I think I would need to go to Texas or somewhere in the south to see that one. It is so worth seeing.

I would book a place to stay for every eclipse coming in the future if I could… Ha ha ha that’s how cool it is. I really felt the presence of God in that moment and his awesomeness.

Back in the 1960's I was living in Central Mexico & was able to observe a Total Eclipse!! It was astounding!! I remember how weird the light was coming thru' the trees!! ;-)
