Lucky you, we only got a partial eclipse and won't have another solstice eclipse for 84 years. I certainly will not be here to see it.

Good morning Arija!!! I missed the eclipse last night, fell asleep. North America will see another lunar eclipse in the year 2014. I'll have to stay awake for that one!
