  • We were going to book something somewhere but decided to stay home. The shaded path will run right thru our town. I think I'll just sit out on the deck and wait for the solar lights to come at around 10:17 am. Less stressful.
  • I had been thinking of just staying home and working, but the more I read maybe I should reconsider. The "TOTAL" path is so close.

    Here is a better web site MAP INFO to know what the time and % of totality.

    Depoe Bay, Oregon info. Time is in Zulu.

  • I have about 10,000 sq ft of wide open space for viewing if your interested. Just bring your own chair and drinks.
