The solar eclipse won't be total in Sussex County but it will be pretty close. Somewhere between 90 and 93 percent. The e newspaper Life in Sussex has some excellent suggestions for places to view the solar eclipse and stay close to home. Really any large open space or field will be great. High Point State Park is a good spot too. It's 1,800 feet above sea level. Some of the suggestions from Life in Sussex include the White Lake Baseball Fields in Sparta and Lodestar Park in Fredon. There's also a special open house at historic Grey Towers in Milford, Pennsylvania that starts at 10:30 and continues until the eclipse ends after 3. Where ever you go I hope you enjoy the historic experience.
