Comments and anecdotes about the event:
Set up early to observe the Sun and some great sunspots well before the solar eclipse. Local Fox affiliate from Colorado Springs drove up to Glendo State Park to do live feeds leading up to and during the total eclipse. Viewed the Sun through both white light and Ha Solar filtered telescopes. As the eclipse began its partial phases, we used collanders, pinholes, mirrors and fingers to demonstrate the different techniquest to view the Sun in addition to our solar glasses and telescopes. Continued observing through the end of the solar eclipse and until a few clouds went overhead obscuring our views.
