Wife and I are starting our first big RV road trip, 3 months on Saturday (3/2). Heading to a wealthy relative's ranch north of San Antonito for the eclipse. Excited.
It is a rare enough that I don't mind waiting out 4 or 5 hours of traffic, especially if I can just putter around on the sailboat while everyone goes back to their regularly scheduled Tuesday lives.
It looks like I’m less than 1 mile from the blue center line, but well within the orange lines. Close enough? Or should I walk to be dead center?
One mile will not make any noticeable difference.

Hope you have a great trip. Please drive carefully...
Why? RVs suddenly have the market cornered on wrecks? I've had 6-7 RVs, I can handle it.
It was supposed to be a joke...
Trying to decide if I want to make over and back 7+ hour drive to Wallops rocket launch center by OC, Md. they are going to send three sounding rockets, beginning middle and end of eclipse… or drive down to Pt Lookout which is pretty same latitude just on western shores of Chesapeake….. think I’ll stay western shore. We’ll get about 84% blank out.
We are in Akron, Ohio and will be watching from our driveway and the golf course across the street.

The river walk there is awesome. There is even a outdoor play house on the river, with seating on the other side.
This beautiful and historic theatre, located in the La Villita Historic Arts Villiage, is the perfect outdoor venue to watch a dance or musical performance.
We were at the 2017 eclipse in Oregon. Getting out from the eclipse area after the eclipse took hours and hours. The freeway was a parking lot. Hotels the night before were outrageous. The night after the eclipse (same day), the hotels were back to normal rates because everyone left.
Thanks to this board, I booked a hotel in San Antonio before prices went up. We're flying there from Raleigh, NC, the day before and leaving the day after. I bought discount gift certificates at Costco for Southwest Airlines. I saved up points for the hotel. I hear the canal walk is nice and we will visit the historic mission buildings. Both of us have never been to San Antonio before so I think it will be interesting, especially the full eclipse experience. I'm going with my adult daughter. My husband can't travel due to back issues.
Are you flying or taking a boat north from CLE? Ya can't drive.We have a B&B in Cleveland. We will visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and pray for no clouds. We are prepared to take a ride north or south a bit if that will help, but weather systems tend to be large and fickle.[/Q]
Does anyone know of good online sites to get detailed cloud reports as the day approaches?

You probably know but just in case..you won’t see totality in San Antonio downtown area. But if you go towards Kerville, you will get in the path of totality…nearly 4.5 minutes at Kerville.
