There won't be another Solar Eclipse in the U.S. for another 20 years.

I'm close enough to totality. It's a short drive for me. 

This eclipse is definitely a good excuse to close work and schools and have a party. It is interesting because it will affect many major cities.   

Niagara Falls and Buffalo, New York, seem like the best places to be if you are close to the east coast.

Down south, Dallas or Austin, Texas, would be the place to be.

You can type in your zip code to see the extent of the eclipse in the NASA eclipse simulation.

If you get totality, it's a strange feeling when things go from day to night. The bugs will start chirping as if it is night-time.
