Laying on your back at 11:30 at night on the deck is not great for the comfort (even with a blanket), but the show above was very nice. The Perseids meteor shower. Perfect viewing. Moon was very low and behind trees. All the light off and the house shielding as much stray light from the south as possible. Mackenzie and Joel and Travis and I were out from 11 to 11:40Pm. We saw at least 15 really good ones. Large, bright and long tails. As well as more than 10 smaller ones. Worth staying up for.
