Shooting stars

Tuesday night my lovely and I went out to the country at midnight and spent two hours leaning back in the jeep with the top down stairing at the stars and watching the Perseid metior shower.  We probably saw 15 shooting stars in about 100 minutes.  We could see about 1/3 of the sky due to cloud cover.

There is a pretty good time lapse of last year’s Perseid meteor shower here.
