I watched quite a bit of coverage of this. It was all pretty interesting.
Comment from Louise Penny.
Total eclipse of the sun today!! And we are right in the path of the totality. It's going to last more than 3 minutes here. Visitors from around the world arriving to see it. Am going to Manoir Hovey with friends to watch. Glasses at the ready. Will report back. Everyone very excited, and rightly so.
