Because I was limited in my travel abilities I was very disappointed that I couldn’t join my friends in the path of totality for the 2017 eclipse.  The consolation prize was that here in Colorado we had 93% coverage but that did not create the diamond ring, Bailey’s beads or the Coronal display that can only come from a total eclipse.  So we donned our eclipse glasses and watched the show.  I took up residency in front of the solar array.  I thought it an appropriate place to observe.
