Minnie Winnie Chases Solar Eclipse

It looks like mine won't be the only Minnie Winnie RV that will be chasing the solar eclipse next week. (I'm sure there will be others.)

From the Statesman Journal:
The Minnie Winnie is stocked and ready to roll. 
Our destination is Solartown, a makeshift camping area just outside Madras off Highway 26. Organizers are converting a farmer’s field into a checkerboard of more than 5,000 RV and tent sites for the eclipse. 
Madras is considered by meteorologists, astronomers, and umbraphiles — better known as eclipse chasers — as one of the best viewing spots in the country. 
Because of its predictable weather, low light noise, favorable elevation, scenic mountain views and wide open spaces, it should provide a perfect sky for the first total eclipse to sweep across America in 99 years.
