> I don't even care about the eclipse but this is so inconvenient and I'm very frustrated.
If you haven't experienced an eclipse in the arc of totality, and that's where you're already going to be, I would strongly suggest (weather and whatever else permitting) that you drive as close to the centerline as you can, and just park the car and stand there for a few minutes.
It is something everyone should experience if they can.
Okay, yours and the other the comments here convinced me to figure something out, and I've made arrangements. If all goes well I will see the eclipse on Monday. Thanks for your encouragement!
