Reed’s account of the event:
“We went to our old house which we are renting to sign a contract with our new renters. We didn’t do any housework on it and went out to look at the eclipse every fifteen minutes. We baked donuts too. This isn’t very eloquent because my mom is just typing what I’m saying word for word.”
Vella’s account of the event:
“We went over to the LaMarche house to see the solar eclipse and we looked at it in about 15 minute intervals with eclipse glasses. It was really cool and interesting, at first it looked like a cookie with a bite out of it. It seemed to move really fast but obviously it’s really us-we’re the ones moving. Then it looked like half the cookie was gone. I missed the part where it was in the middle but all the parts I saw were really interesting. I can’t believe it was over in just a couple hours. I’ve always thought those things moved really slow. We also made eclipse donuts. They were homemade from the dough of my favorite cake and we had delicious chocolate glaze. We actually made an eclipse with one donut with the glaze on it and one without. The one without was the sun and we made our own eclipse, on a mini scale of course. I had a great time and I can’t wait until the next one in seven years.”
Adi’s account of the event:
” I think it was cool because the moon came in front of the sun.”
