Leonid meteor shower nears peak

I was in a deer stand yesterday morning about a hour before sun break and
could see them great. I too was way out in the country and looking up at the heavens is one reason I go so early to take it all in. LSU will have a star party once a month so check it out at Worley Observatory south off Ellerby Road. Great stuff. The best is still just standing out looking up. I will be there
early in the morning.

Yesterday morning 12/14 it was going strong. One about every five minutes and with the stars in the back ground and the moon at less than a quarter I could see everything so clear. There times I stop and just look up and being out in the country you can see so much.
