… meteor shower drags on, with Les UDs spending the night of August 12 somewhere in the mountains around here (or near the Chesapeake Bay) in search of a dark sky.
Les UDs are, this time of year, usually at their way-remote houselet in Upstate New York, where the night skies are amazing and where UD has indeed (wrapped in a sleeping bag and leaning back in a lawn chair) seen her share of meteors… But nothing you’d call a shower…
However life-altering or bitterly disappointing this year’s local outing, UD will of course blog it.
