In '94, I was working dayshift. It was break time for me. The eclipse peaked a few minutes after I got outside. I had no glasses. There happened to be a greasy little mud puddle in a little pothole. I saw the reflection of the eclipse on the surface of the puddle. The puddle dulled the brightness of the sun, but the imagery was still clear, and SHARP! Not much glare at all. Ok gotta go. My new seeing eye dog just showed up. Cool.

Where are you located???? I thought the last eclipse was a 1979????

[@brendaann727]

Quick thinking. Your last line got me.😂😂😂 They said don't look at it reflected in a mirror, it can still do damage😦 I actually looked at an eclipse when I was a child. Next year I had to get glasses. Always thought it was all my fault for sneaking a peek at the eclipse. 😒😳

Nope. Best way is stay home. There will be too much footage available. In HD. No idiots, no traffic, no problems. And if the earthquakes progress, I wont be stranded.
