Re: 2 years and counting...
Not far from where I am now; I'm pretty much in the path of totality. However, if the weather is anything like today, I'll just see a totality of clouds 
Here's hoping!

I hope to be somewhere in the Moon's shadow, probably in Arkansas or thereabout.

Many small scopes, plus a Lightbridge 12, LX 70-8R,6R,6M
Many eyepieces, just not really expensive ones.

We will most likely be living in NJ at that time, so several hours to upstate NY sounds great!

Re: 2 years and counting...
I'm hoping to be with Dr. Clay at the Arkansas Skies Observatory in Conway, Arkansas. Not too far from the centerline.
But my plan is to be mobile and head southwest into Texas or northeast into Missouri if the weather looks better.
