We found a camp ground in central Mo and watched the last one. It was awesome. If you can get to this one I highly recommend it. Don’t settle for partial. Total is a whole different thing. We were on the Missouri River. The birds all headed for the trees and the night time insects started up. So cool.
I had lined up with a large group including an astronomer we know, but the area they’ll be in only has 2 1/2 minutes of totality.
My wife and daughter rebelled. We’re going to another friends place with almost 4 minutes totality.
