Geminids

[Owlie]

Anyone watch them? I stayed out in the parking lot, bundled up in a down jacket and two pairs of gloves, for 45 minutes (I packed it in because my feet were cold). I caught 13 meteors for sure, and a few maybes. I probably would have seen more if I hadn't been in the parking lot of my apartment complex.

Pretty neat stuff. One of them was super bright white--like a magnesium flare.

Sort of reminds me of when my dad bundled us all in the car to go watch the Perseids in one of the state parks outside Cincinnati, only less comfortable because the Perseids are in August!

Didn't go out looking for them-- actually forgot all about it. But I happened to look up while taking the dog out and there was a meteor!
