Mr. Floor, go to the Ajusco, you will have plenty of company and it is very cool up there.
I will be for sure checking them out, I will not miss the chance to make so many wishes on a falling star

I heard about this a couple of weeks ago and already have it marked on my calendar. My husband and I have decided to make a date out of it and plan on staying up until the wee hours watching the stars.

Very cool. I will be staying up late that night to see the show.
For those really interested in Astronomy check out www.chiefland.org
It is a astronomy community founded by my Uncle Billy (RIP) located in Chiefland Fl.

Yeah... drunk posting. So what... lol.
We are getting ready to all head out to a spot between the 6th and 2nd fairways on the golf course to watch the Perseids until the beer runs out. Music and coolers of beer are on standby.

Clear and lovely here--a sweet night, despite the range fires to the north of us. I think the smoke is blowing northeast, fortunately.
We've been out in the backyard for about an hour. Saw a couple of dozen, probably--two good ones. Headed back out now for an hour or so.
We'd probably see more except for the city lights--not too bad here on the extreme north side of town, but still....
El's got better eyes than I do. EJ's got terrible night vision--tripped over the lawn chair on the way back in. Not the beer of course.
Best,
George

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

For those that missed it because of clouds, there is another one coming September first. This is a very rare even.

It might not even show, or it might be great, but it looks like us in the east will miss out either way.
