Day 1340 - October Showers - Meteor Showers...
Greetings, Bloggy Middlers!
I didn't know about this early enough to tell you yesterday, but there were meteor showers last night, and will be for the next several nights.
They are called the Orionid meteor showers, caused by Haleys comet.
Charlie and I have gone to see these before, usually at a spot on the Natchez Trace Parkway or bridge.
There are usually plenty of other people there, doing the same thing.
One hippie-style dude walked by us one year and asked 'Got any rolling papers?' We didn't.
Tell me if you saw any shooting stars last night!

TTFN and watch that starry sky!

Sorry, we're too tired by bed time to get up between 1 and 6 to look at the stars! I hope somebody in blogasphere will have a story about the meteor shower.
