Communities across the Texas Hill Country brace for record-breaking crowds expected on April 8 for the total solar eclipse.
A prime location and one of the first cities in the US to experience totality is Kerrville. Its prolonged totality of 4 minutes and 25 seconds will draw thousands to the heart of the Hill Country.
Located about 30 minutes from Kerrville, the City of Boerne, is also prepared for thousands of visitors. “It's a great opportunity for all the businesses here because we're gonna have lots of people. We have people calling from like all over the United States saying they're coming to Boerne to see it,” Reltzoff said.“There's a couple who's coming into town from out of state, and they wanted to be married during the total eclipse,” Eric Waters said. Waters is a pastor at St. John Lutheran Church.“I think we'll just probably watch it.
