Got yer meteor shower info right here. Park your lawn chair (paper toweling?) after 11 pm (pref. after midnight) or right before dawn.
Maybe you’ll see a fireball. As luck would have it, the Perseid meteor shower is the “Fireball Champion.” Jupiter, Venus, and the Moon will show up together just as the meteor shower reaches its peak. A dim Mars and bright Jupiter will be visible right before the sun rises, above the eastern horizon.
Best viewing spot? Rural America, of course!

hey, attempted to add a comment but got a little complicated for me……… no surprise!
we’ll be out there tonight, with our up hill neighbors, eating veggie burgers and cuke soup.
it’s been a wonderful day in the garden–though I have not laughed as much as a week ago today with you and Nigel!
love, j
The craft beer didn’t hurt. Regardless, that was a total howl.
Regarding JJ’s upcoming reference to Nigel, here he is in his heavy (metal) magic glory:
