Our readers, our eclipse

On Aug. 21, people gathered in town parks, neighborhoods and on mountain tops to witness one of nature’s biggest phenomenon, the eclipse of the sun. One has not been seen in North America since 1979 and it was the first time that the path of totality crossed the entire continental United States since 1918.
