#TotalSolarEclipse

Today was our first day of our 2017/2018 Homeschool Year, the first day of 7th grade, AND the Great North American Total Solar Eclipse 2017!

We watched coverage on the Weather Channel about the solar eclipse, built two eclipse viewers from boxes, observed through a welding hood and our viewers.  To top the day off we had grilled ribeyes with mushroom sauce, baked potatoes wrapped in bacon, baked beans, and made ECLIPSE COOKIES with a great sugar cookie/frosting recipe and York peppermint patties.
