[emrat:9948] Eclipse 2017

If you didn't know, on August 21st, there will be an eclipse viewable by everyone in North America.  The path of totality will follow a line from Oregon to South Carolina.  I had intended to take a vacation day for Monday the 21st, ride up on Sunday and motorcycle camp. My son has seized the opportunity to miss a day of school so I am now driving with the wife, son and dog. Current expectations are that traffic is going to be a cluster suck getting to and from the path of totality on Monday the 21st.   This is a once in a lifetime event, if you have a chance to view it.  If you decide to stay in Denver, the moon will provide about 93% coverage of the sun

I will be camping out near Alliance, Nebraska at the venue of the Alliance Toad Stock Festival.
