Thanks mikrofon for the schedule, and thanks ProtectOurFreedom for the map.
You’re welcome ... unfortunately, some of the Table formatting was lost in posting making it less readable.
Thanks for the table of info!
I made a special eclipse viewing box just for the occasion!
Instructions can be found here:

It’s overcast here, beautiful evening, but can’t spot the disks.
(bump)
I’m trying to get some video. If it turns out maybe I’ll get a couple of screenshots.

Thanks for the link. I was just thinking of seeing if there was a stream. And here it is. Wonderful.
Excellent!
Here are a couple of shots. I taped the beat up glass from my welding helmet over my crappy Sony Handycam and put it on a tripod. So I was watching the eclipse on the screen.
Not award winning photos for sure. But they are mine.
