text: Amazing, isn't it! I knew that this total solar eclipse was going to be a big deal years ago, but the interest has exceeded my expectations. Given that Madras, Redmond, Bend and even the Warm Springs Reservation lodging space is full, you can imagine how full the other places along the mid-path are, such as Jackson and Casper, Wyoming.  All camping space in Oregon state parks anywhere along the path are long gone. Oregon Parks decided to make more space available in parks, just for the event, and those were all taken within 15 minutes of when they opened for reservations. Get eclipse glasses, before they are all gone, and enjoy the partial. BTW, the Science Factory shop has the glasses for less than $2.
