    just went outside for a smoke, and saw 6 shooting stars in 5 minutes.

    is that freaky?

    ...i saw 4 yesterday, 1 the day before and 1 the day before that

    so 12 in 4 days, lets hope a big one isn't pushing all the small bits :eek:

    August is when we pass through some trail, and get peak meter showers.

    Have fun,

    I haven't seen a shooting star in about 20 years. I used to see them all of the time when we'd go to Chippewa Wisconsin each summer.

    You can only see stars in this area a few nights a year. :(

    I haven't seen a shooting star in a long time either. I've been having to make all my wishes off pennies and fountains.
