ROFLMAO...as my first calls were to Amangani and then the FS Jackson Hole. There's a big science gathering there in the vicinity, so I can't say I'm surprised. And I never can justify 5 nights for something like this--I always feel taken. But I love that you're gonna be hanging with science nerds to see it! That's fab!

After Jackson was out, and it looked like Portland/Salem were out, I actually booked the Westin Nashville--since that is the only major metro area that is also directly in the total eclipse path. But I'll enjoy Portland/Willamette Valley better, and it's closer!

I could care less about massages/spa treatments--I'm the world's worst gay man in that regard. But noted on behalf of my hubby who will love those. Thanks!
