Last night I went out to look for meteors. It’s the time of the Perseids. The general thinking was that with the recently full moon and residual wild fire smoke that there wouldn’t be much to be seen.
But I still stood out in the dark to catch a few stronger “shooting stars”. There’s a thrill in even seeing one so I didn’t really need a spectacle.
More tonight if you have a dark enough sky. Standing in the dark quietly and facing the universe doesn’t hurt even if you can’t see a single star.
