Your post the other day reminded me and inspired me to wake up and watch. Took some pictures: http://www.flickr.com/gp/91035898@N00/13537B and also woke up my 5-year-old daughter to watch it. She was bragging about it the next day! "Well, _my_ daddy woke _me_ up to see the eclipse..." Thank you Phil. Your post the other day reminded me and inspired me to wake up and watch.
