    Vehicle:
    2017 Tacoma OR 4x4 (formerly a 1998 SR5 PU, 2002 OR 4x4, 1995 4x4 4Runner, 1985 4x4 Toy PU) ... and RIP’s (rust in pieces) to a Bronco II 4x4 & S10 Blazer 4x4
    I’ll start: we drove straight through in our brand new 2017 OR from souther California to north of Boise Idaho to view the 2017 eclipse. I set up camp at a forest service campground and we had a lot of visitors stop by because I had telescopes out. That’s me in the chair taking these photos of the eclipse.

    This was the maiden camping voyage of our Tacoma and it did very well. The eclipse was awesome. Next time we’re heading to Texas for the ‘24 eclipse.

    My original 2017 just a few weeks old:

    If anyone here wants a local weather forecast for the eclipse on Monday the 8th and want to save $18 for their premium membership, send me your location and I’ll send you a screenshot of your area for free. I subscribed to Windy.com and it provides a very good set of prediction models for up to 10 days ahead.

    So we are in eastern Oklahoma so a drive 2 hours south to Broken Bow put us in totality for 4-6 minutes. Originally was worried because it was super cloudy. 6 minutes before the totality the clouds broke, and it was very awesome. I thought it would be not interesting. But it ended up being super cool.
