MAKANDA, IL – (Adriana Diaz, CBS News. Please click on the link above to read the full story and watch the accompanying video. Here is an excerpt below.)
A rare event in space will bring a dark day for millions of Americans, but many see it as a cause for celebration
The small town of Makanda, Illinois, however, will be directly in the eclipse’s path and is one of the places where the eclipse can be viewed the longest – over two minutes, reports CBS News’ Adriana Diaz.
“I do feel lucky. How can you not feel lucky? This is a lucky event,” said Dave Dardis.
The solar eclipse’s path runs straight through Dave Dardis’ art studio and shop in Makanda, and friends are coming out of the woodwork to get in on the action.
