I'm directly in the path of totality, like smack dab in the center of the path. I'm looking forward to seeing it. My kids have the day off school and I'm excited for them to experience it as well. What I'm NOT looking forward to is the flood of visitors that are supposed to flock to our very rural county that weekend. We have ~36k residents in our county and they're estimating 100-160k visitors that weekend. We cannot handle that - our roads, stores, gas stations, hotels (there's maybe two or three) even with all this notice will not be able to handle it. It's going to be chaos and I hope that these visitors will be respectful of other peoples property and pick up after themselves, but I know many of them won't. I have a feeling I'll be busy all weekend policing my property, running off squatters, and it's going to ruin the experience for me.
