I recall the weather being too cold for November, but it must’ve been the Leonids. I don’t really know, but it was spectacular enough that I’m surprised there isn’t more available via web search.

Do you mean from 10 years ago?

One of the most spectacular astronomical events I witnessed was when Hale-Bopp was in the sky.

In March of 1997 I saw a near total lunar eclipse on one side of the sky with the Hale-Bopp comet on the other. In Idaho there isn’t that much light pollution so the show was simply fantastic.
