I'll find any reson to set out side and drink too much beer next to a fire . Remember!! As you get drunk back up from the fire. I hate it when I melt holes in my favorit boots. Enjoy

Cool. It's usually too cloudy here to see them though.

I live in Louisiana. So I get that to. I wait to this time of the year to whatch so the bugs dont eat me alive. I have a drum that I make my fire in so the flames dont blind me to the sky. It kicks out more heat than an open flame also. I like all the colers that the meteors are to. White burning 1's are ice,greens,blues and yellows are rocks. Ice gose in a flash and the rocks last a bit longer.

it will be fun to watch
