alison the wilca Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 i used to love driving out to the country, laying on the hood of my car with my friends, and watching the perseids and, in november, the leonids. that was in california. the chicagoland area seems devoid of pitch black skies within 20-30 minutes of the city. ::sigh:: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NightOfJoy Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I saw one meteor last nite. I got up at 3:45 this morning to find my night sky obscured by clouds and went back to bed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
austrya Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 I only saw one, also. It was at about 11:30, so I don't think it was part of the meteor shower, just a stray shooting star. I got up around 4:30 to let my cat out and stood outside for a minute, but I was too tired to focus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
