…well, around these parts not quite so total.

Still, we had a fair amount of the sun blocked by the moon.  I’d say at least 3/4ths of it was blocked.  Here’s a photo I took of a sheet of paper (I didn’t have any fancy $2.00 sunglasses to gamble my eyesight on and therefore used the famous pinprick method of “seeing” the eclipse):

Not the most dynamic picture ever, I grant you, but at least I wasn’t doing this…

On instagram my daughter found this image of an obvious MENSA candidate that, if one believes the post, decided to stare at the eclipse a little too long without any eye protection.  This was the end result…

Enjoy your future blindness, my cerebral friend.
