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.
