Shooting stars
The Leonid meteor shower is reaching its peak tonight. When we lived in Salem, Dave and I would get up in the middle of the night during the Leonids, fill a couple of go-cups with hot chocolate, then walk over to Derby Wharf where we'd lay in the grass, bundled up against the cold weather to watch the show. We also had a tradition of not going home after walking Flash each night until one of us spotted a satellite going by. Usually we'd hang out on the Wharf until we'd seen three or four. I really miss living there.
Another fun fact about today: it's my Dad's birthday! Happy Birthday!!!
