As some of you may know we have a lunar eclipse coming across the U.S. later this month. There is a thread about it on WoV. Shack has a hotel room reserved in Boise, Idaho and will probably be in Lime, Oregon which lies dead center of the path of totality. It will be dark for about 2.5 minutes in that location.
I have an old friend that lives just outside Boise. He has an RV. We've rented a campsite on a river in Idaho for the eclipse that is also dead center of the path of totality. They are expecting about 30,000 people to pour into the area we will be in. We want to avoid the traffic so will be there a few days early and will be getting some fishing time in.
Out of curiosity I just checked hotel prices on Trivago for Boise on 8-20-2017, the night before the eclipse. Super 8 wants $666 for the night, Rodeway Inn wants $800. LOL!
