Finally! A positive group event

HBO Staff experiences the #eclipse2017

Yes, everyone can agree that the total solar eclipse this morning was a unifying event. Here at my HBO office in Santa Monica, people brought moon-shaped food to share, extra eclipse glasses and a positive mood! We had a grand time for about an hour. Our office quadrant faces north/east and the fifth floor balcony right outside. It was the perfect viewing point to see the eclipse.

Thai and Gena, viewing the eclipse old-school!

There were co-workers I hadn't see in YEARS descending on the fifth floor balcony! Lots of new people too!

One of my co-workers managed to take a photo on his iPhone, through the eclipse glasses!  Very cool.

Thanks Gena and Lisa for bringing moon-shaped food!

If I had really planned ahead, I would have crocheted something appropriate to commemorate the eclipse event.

Penny crocheted a "sun" hat with a moveable moon eclipse!

Thank you, heavens above, for bringing us an event we can ALL rally around!
