It was totally cool! We went up to the top of Signal Hill to see it (along with half the surrounding population, it would seem) with our eclipse glasses. As it got close to the maximum, the light got dimmer in a weirdly sharp focused way - that's the best way I can think to describe it. The temperature also went down noticeably.

We're making plans to travel to see the total eclipse in 2017.
