Hi all,
My wife, son and I are planning to drive to Oregon or Idaho to view the solar
eclipse on August 21st. Hotels in the rarified Zone of Totality are either sold

It takes perseverance and luck to view a total solar on land. Murphy rules
the weather on those days. My wife and I have been extremely lucky to have

that area is high country,and not subject to coastal climates. ID is
just acouple hours' drive away, in case you decide to visit. Trouble
is, I don't know if Wenatchee is east enough for the eclipse path. I'm
