Eclipsed

This evening I headed out to see if the weather allow for a glimpse of the partial annular solar eclipse, however the eclipse was eclipsed by the clouds.  Oh well there is always 2017, which will be a total eclipse.  Funny thing, I remember the last total eclipse visible in the state, I think I was in 3rd grade.  It was cloudy that day too, so we watched the eclipse on T.V.  I remember thinking that 2017 was an impossibly long time from 1979, now not so long.  All was not lost, today, as I was about to get a couple nice shots from the Meadowbrook bridge.
