Hey cuddleheart , thanks for the Heads up about the Meteroite showers, i have been watching the sky , nearly every night, i exercise in the evening , a place i go in the woods with the poundog, and have seen the Growing number of shooting stars, the night before even though we had a nearly full moon, i was looking up in a stretching exercise , and above me not more than 500 feet came streaking glow ball about the size of a golf ball, it was so close it left a vapor trail, From what ive read about these pieces of Meteorites it was probally about the size of a BB and it is super heated to look bigger, than a few seconds later another one came by about 1500 ft above my head, it was quite a nice experience, gave me that immediate sense of Awe of my surroundings and my life, as Nature does to me from time to time... Yeah i always feel better after a walk in the night and ive look and see the constellations i know , and always makes me think the same questions i have thought about since i was just a kid laying in the grass on a Summers night and thinking well what's beyond the furthest star i see, and well, whats beyond that ............... i haven't come up with the answer yet ..... im still a kid looking up at the night sky wondering whats beyond what i see....
