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.
