Our son-in-law temporarily working in Oregon saw 100% coverage as did the daughters in Kansas and Missouri. Thanks for your view!Gwynette in NW Arkansashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927073930202226621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-34329349394691234772017-08-24T16:25:22.898-06:002017-08-24T16:25:22.898-06:00I just read your last 4 posts!

I didn't comment on all your posts, but just want to mention that I do love your Garden Party mini. The colors are perfect! And I am going to have to check out those rulers, not for minis, but regular size. I just bought a new Fiskars ruler that I just hate! The lines are so fat you can't tell where the fabric ends on the inch lines. The quarter inch lines are fine, but I think I'll take it back. I can't work with it. Thanks for the info about the Creative Grid rulers. I don't know if they have them at Joanns or not, but I will find out. Thanks!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11912222251238739813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-54933869661782497632017-08-24T11:39:44.657-06:002017-08-24T11:39:44.657-06:00Such an amazing experience Janet - and what wonder...Such an amazing experience Janet - and what wonderful photos you got!!

Here in Ohio the sky was so cloudy we couldn't see the sun or moon, let alone the eclipse. It was disappointing.

We didn't want to make a big deal of it, and then I decided that we needed to experience history. We had glasses so were able to see a partial eclipse from the yard.

We wimped out because of the crowds and found a beautiful spot on Hebgen Lake to view 99%. Even that was awe-inspiring and we were very grateful to a fellow viewer for his loan of xtra viewing glasses. We had left ours in IF where we had originally planned to view. And it took us 10 minutes to get the 10 miles back to oue campspot! 😄Glad you are safe and sound!Roger and Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10359110504627517155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-83101706101121445302017-08-22T14:51:47.906-06:002017-08-22T14:51:47.906-06:00I was thrilled to read your eclipse experience.
