I would very much like to witness the solar eclipse. It would be so very nice to witness a phenomenon that hasn't happened in the US in nearly 100 years. I even live in a county that falls under the center-line path of totality.

Sadly, I don't have access to the special eye wear. And I have this hesitation or social anxiety to find the best or even a good spot to view it, even if I did have the eye wear, and interact with the outside world -- I've been pretty isolated for several months, now.

I like things pertaining to astronomy. Recently, within the last couple of years, there was an event regarding the Perseid Meteor Shower...I missed that too, but that was because I lived in a big city at the time and it was near impossible to see the night sky due to the light pollution. And I was too anxious to drive out of the city...I didn't know my way around that state at all.

Is anyone else going to check out the eclipse?
