Back in August 2016, I drove up to Roberts, Idaho to view the Great American Eclipse. I stayed at a KOA in Lava Hot Springs while there.

Everyone else in the U.S. will see just a regular partial solar eclipse, which has caused thousands to make plans and book-up hotels, RV parks and campsites in the path.

If one has never experienced a total solar eclipse, it is well worth a trip to see it.
