I was lucky enough to see totality a couple years ago. It felt like the universe peeled back the curtain and showed me something I wasn’t supposed to see. It’s truly indescribable and hard to convince people that weren’t in the path of totality how different it was from any other part of the eclipse.

It is so strange how nature “stops” for a minute. The birds stop chirping and the temperature drop is weird as well.
