There's quite the discussion of the logistics in the vicinities of the Aug. 21 eclipse , in terms of availability of food, fuel, even bathrooms, in this article:

Our plan: watch the live stream from home; look at the 40% through a pinhole viewer in the back yard.

Wow ! This sounds like good news.
The best photo opportunities will be the people, environment, chaos and all the buzz around us !

This is like waiting for bad weather, storms and such, to get best dramatic photos.

And the anticipated 1,000,000 tourists will be hitting Oregon during its peak wildfire season. Be safe out there, everyone.
