The Leonids didn't seem that great here is SW Florida.   Even at the
calculated peak (4:55 a.m. EST), they were sporadic and only a small
fraction of the 2,000 per half-hour predicted.   Light pollution is a big
problem here.  How was the display where you'all were?

Did anybody get any nice digital shots?


The fog was so thick here in southeastern lower michigan, that I could not even find my truck. I was afraid that if I left the sidewalk to find my truck I might never be able to find my way home. So dropping bread crumbs, I found my truck and drove to higher ground, hoping that it might be thinner up there. We dont really have higher ground around here. Then I drove out to my folks place (was supposed to meet with my dad at 4AM) in hopes that God might have provided us a clear patch of sky to practice our art... God was sleeping.
