My viewing was kind of a wash. I actually went early Tues. AM and although I found a place much darker than the city itself, it was still awash in light. I did see about 6-8, though. And one was freaking ginormous! Lit up the sky. But it was late and my eyes were going wiggy anyway. Focus was kind of coming and going. So I didn't stay out long. All in all, my vacation was kind of a wash, too. Ah well. I guess it'll take more than 5 days off to teach me how to actually vacation again. Laura, sorry to hear that. My viewing was kind of a wash.

I'll be up for the Leonids in November, though! I had hoped to watch the Perseids, but I was foiled by forest fire smoke. I’ll be up for the Leonids in November, though!
