Looks good. I had my weekly golf league match, with a tee time coinciding pretty closely to the onset of the transit. I used 7X35 binoculars for eyepiece projection onto the scorecard pad of my hand pulled golf cart. I could see Venus quite distinctly, but no sun spots. I have to say I was a little disappointed with the lack of interest by my fellow golfers, although several of them did take a look. The way of the Golfstronomer is hard.

Lew, ya should have told the golfers it was a golf ball crossing in front of the sun...That would have got their attention!
