Tonight.


I admit to laziness this year. It's been a long week and I was tired.
Plus quite a few clouds in the sky and forecasted to be so through the
night. I've seen some good meteor showers in past years, and some that
fizzled, but just didn't have the energy to check them out this year.
I hope whoever made the effort was rewarded.

Jon.


Wasn't much of a show this time around. A couple dozen over the
course of two hours or more was all I saw. I've had better nights
unassociated with any of the perennial showers I'm familiar with.
Still, a night out under the stars is never time ill spent.
