I was told not to drive with the glasses on
So I cut it in half- like a pirate
I guess I saw 50% of it��

I wanted to see it, but I thought it would be too dark to see. So, a couple minutes before it was set to happen I turned on my NVG's and looked up to watch. Now I'm blind.

I couldn't see it, as it was/is completely overcast.

And I live just outside San Antonio TX, in the path of totality

The skies here in Rhode Island stayed clear, and despite not being on "the path" we still got to about 90% totality.

So yeah, I was the middle-aged guy sitting on a big rock in my front yard at 3:30 PM looking up at the sky wearing goofy glasses.
