Total Eclipse of the Sun will jam CG's!

Where will you be on August 21?

They are expecting eclipse crazy people from all over the world to travel to the US where the best spot to view the eclipse is!

That will mean resorts and CG's are going to fill up fast.

The best spots do center around many of the more popular summer destinations for us RV'ers.

""Eclipse-chasers from around the world will head to viewing spots August 21, joining millions of Americans to witness this incredible natural phenomenon""

""Plenty of hotel rooms and camping sites have sold out, but we still found a few with availability. ""

I guess I would've never guessed people actually travel to go see an eclipse.

yup X2

I certainly couldn't see taking any kind of long trip to be in the ideal spot to just look at the sun being covered. :R

They say most of the people from out of the country that come here for it will be from China. Go figure!

Hope the influx of all those lookie lou eclipse worshipers doesn't affect our RV'ers that are planning vacation trips to those areas though.

Seen it before, no big deal.
It'll happen again.

I assumed everything was booked up by now. I wanted to go but, school starts August 23rd.

It would be too much of a rush to get the kids back in time. :(

There should be another one in a hundred or so years. I'll wait for the next one. :)

As we live in the area of Columbia SC we plan to stay just where we are and look up.
