  1. hello, once again, deborah
    trusting tonight, you’ll observe the leonids…
    should your skies be cloudy, they’ll be viewable for the next three nights.

    while i have you here, a peaceful, blessed thanksgiving day.

    leonids–
    tho i’m 3 hours ahead
    sleep evades me

    same moon, same leonids–
    prattling rain

  2. Bob,

    Unfortunately, I have to drive away from Los Angeles to see meteors due to the light pollution here. I won’t be able to fit in a drive to the desert or up Angeles Crest Highway during the leonids this year.

    leonids
    the bend in the road where I watched
    before

  3. deb,
    “light pollution”, i’d not thought of the abundance of light this way; with such clear wording.
    man’s ironic ways has done it again; something wonderful taken to extremes.

    perchance, anyone thinking to turn off all lights worldwide for 5 minutes, to address this issue.

    autumn darkness
    my mind
    reels from the starlit field
