Sorry for the off topic post but I know that many are interested in the 
upcoming eclipse.

I am planning on traveling to the path of totality from my brothers place in 
Clinton Iowa

We are looking at the area of Columbia MO.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

My suggestion is DO NOT look at the sun without the proper eye protection except for the roughly 2 minutes of totality. There is some danger even in looking at the "diamond ring" without protection. Please review the following URL for safe viewing:

Good viewing!
