We will be loading up our "Have Rig and Will Travel" for a road trip to view the eclipse in the totality band.

My unofficial survey indicates that Hotel vacancies are limited and room prices are higher than normal in cities that in or near the totality band.

We did the same for the last eclipse. It was a very entertaining and enlightening experience.

I would encourage everyone to go see it in "totality"  if possible.

YOU WON'T REGRET IT !!!

Well, that was a big nothing here.  77% of the sun obscured and it was like there was a light haze.
