partial solar eclipse

 my friend, janet, invited me onto her roof to watch the partial solar eclipse today. she had the special eclipse glasses i've heard so much about, and i was amazed at how well they worked. you could look directly into the sun and watch the event very clearly! chanda had greg and i looking in seven eleven stores last night when coming home from the shakespeare performance, but they were all sold out of glasses.

 the day did get a bit dark, but not like if it had been a full eclipse.

 janet and her youngest . . 

 we had a delicious snack of peanut butter on sprouted grain bread and tea . .

 it was an incredibly pleasant afternoon. i'm so glad she called. chanda had gone over to her friend's house who lives in the east village with janet's son gabriel. how fortunate to have good friends with roof gardens!

 her apples and raspberries were especially tasty this year.

a serious pic with clyde, who came over for dinner as he's heading back to california tomorrow. we'll miss him and sunny CA (and those delicious avocadoes!).
