Meteor shower tonight!

I just heard it on the radio then looked it up online - the year's best meter shower, this year the Geminids, is peaking tonight! Peak is expected to be around midnight, with as many as one meteor a minute! That's a pretty nice rate and under clear skies will probably best all of the other showers this year.

Get out, bundle up, and look up!

Yep! And I had cloudy skies last night!!!

It isn't fair!!!

Weather has killed most of these events for me this year!

Maybe it'll be clear tonight. Tonight is supposed to be good too!

I was actually outside at midnight to take out the garbage that my son forgot to take out (grrr), but it was so cold I forgot to look up (brrr).

Great shot, Rick. Too bad the only arches we have around here are golden...:rolleyes:

Hey Rick :)


Didja ever look at a photo and see something that isn't really there? I keep coming back to your photo cause I see a figure of a man with a moustache and beard driving, in the outline of the opening of the arch. Crazy huh?

Here's the part I mean.

Danielle

hehe, funny girl Danielle :D

Forgot to say, I do love the photo Rick, even if there is a rock guy in it!

"Forgot to say, I do love the photo Rick, even if there is a rock guy in it!"

Don't you mean, "I love the photo especially because there's a rock drivin' guy in it?" ;)

p.s. I'll pay you hourly to look at every picture I've ever taken if you promise me you'll find at least ONE more serendipity like this!
