Chris... Posted June 21, 2017 Share #1 Posted June 21, 2017 Aug 21. Looks like we will see a 95% eclipse here. Or I could drive down to Carbondale for a total eclipse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrapr ★ Posted June 21, 2017 Share #2 Posted June 21, 2017 there is a small town about 45 mins north of us in the path oc totality. They are expecting 100k people. It's a 2 lane road in/out. Government advising bringing all your needed supplies yourself. There has been a run on porta potties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Far ★ Posted June 21, 2017 Share #6 Posted June 21, 2017 Looks like I could drive an hour north east & get the full show. Heh, heh. Looks like the path will go right over the top of Cheese's house. Shirley nothing could go wrong there. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted June 21, 2017 Share #9 Posted June 21, 2017 The Great American eclipse. Shouldn't that be on a hat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerrySTL ★ Posted June 21, 2017 Share #10 Posted June 21, 2017 I have August 21st off and live only a few miles from it. I plan on checking out the weather and heading towards where the sky promises to be clear. I was going to ride or walk on the Katy Trail but it may be too busy on the roads to it.

However, I think I know about how big a Homer Bucket is..... that diameter might only serve a certain size of "carriage". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you might have to make other arrangements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc2000 Posted June 22, 2017 Share #23 Posted June 22, 2017 30 miles north for me. Finding an unoccupied location may be a little difficult though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groupw Posted June 22, 2017 Share #24 Posted June 22, 2017 We will have totality here. Everything is full, but I have a couple air mattresses and couches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmaxx ★ Posted June 22, 2017 Share #25 Posted June 22, 2017 Only 70% here but at least it's not happening at night. The eclipse you can see anywhere by video, but listening to the animals and watching the world do strange things at mid day is always interesting.
