Abstract

This chapter applies to all people who will be traveling to see the eclipse, but especially those who will not be part of an organized travel group. You may observe the eclipse alone, with friends or family, or at a public event like the one at Rosecrans Memorial Airport in St. Joseph, Missouri. I thought it would be good to provide a checklist of both common and unusual items that I think readers should bring to the eclipse. Such an inventory could get out of hand quickly, so I limited it to 25 entries.
