We are in Idaho Falls where the eclipse can be observed in it's totality and plan to just stay put. Local officials are already warning of an Armageddon of sorts descending upon us. Estimates of how many people are coming for this event run up to 500,000. This figure is mainly based on our proximity to I-15 and the number of people living within easy reach of it and traveling here. Folks are being warned to make sure all our vehicles' fuel tanks are topped off, and don't even think of going to the grocery store because they will be jam-packed, so you need to make sure your fridge, freezer, and cupboards are well stocked. All hotels/motels and campgrounds were booked up years ago on the weekend leading up to Aug. 21 for exorbitant rates.
I have a brother that lives in Pocatello and works in Idaho falls. He thinks trying to drive to work on MOnday will be an exercise in futility.
