After Joie went to bed tonight, Heather, Livvi, & I went outside to see if we'd get lucky and see some of the effects of Earth's annual passing through the Perseid meteor shower. We laid on a blanket and watched the sky for about 30 minutes hoping to see a show. Heather went in after about 15 minutes. I saw a pretty good one about 5 minutes later heading west-southwest. However, I was really hoping Livvi could see one before we went in....and we did! I saw the same one she did heading south, so I know she actually saw one. I was fortunate to have seen two tonight and thrilled Livvi saw one! I may try to look again right before dawn. Heather and Joie might have to wait until next year. :-(
