On Monday, April 8 marked a momentous day for Searcy County and everyone in the Nation. The Eclipse started around 12:50 p.m. and ended around 3 p.m. People were lining the streets, parking lots, lawns, etc. from all around the U.S. to watch this amazing historical event. The last time a total solar eclipse happened in North America was in 2017 but it was only a partial eclipse for some. The next total solar eclipse will be in 2044 for North America. The next lunar eclipse will be in March of 2025.

Rocks A photo shoot took us today to an area with a large, apparently longestablished rock business. Before we got to that exact spot, I had noticed that all the houses for a few miles were sided with rock. It makes perfect sense, of course, durable, beautiful, and apparently plentiful. Scattered throughout the Ozarks are the “giraffe houses” with a unique style of rock that looks a bit like a giraffe’s colors, hence the name.
