I saw the Venus transit. There was heavy cloud coverage but an opening appeared and I got about 15 minutes of clear viewing with solar binoculars.

Beautiful

We went to the event at UCONN, unfortunately the overcast skies didn’t cooperate for a telescope viewing, but the [hysics department simulcast the NASA feed from Hawaii. It was well-attended and a wonderful, historic experience for sky-gazers. :)
