Yes, a very unique experience. I had the opportunity to travel to a friend's home in Kentucky with my grandkids.
I was lucky and got some good shots through my telescope. Everything had to be setup correctly as there was no time for a second shot.
I had my telescope setup with my solar filter and had to use it until the last sliver of sun.

As soon as totality hit, I had to quickly remove the solar filter to take a photo of the total eclipse.

It was really nice knowing that my grandkids got to see this, and hopefully, will be able to again in the near future.

GREAT PICS!!!!
I was fortunate enough to fly a friend's Cessna 172 down to Princeton, KY with my three kids to view the 2017 eclipse. Super time and great memories! Snapped a few pics similar to these but NOT NEAR the quality/clarity.
Next total solar eclipse viewable across the US is after 2039 according to an Interactive Solar Eclipse website.
