I accidentally saw a great meteor shower one August night, @1977, when I decided to sleep on my apartment deck because it was so hot. It was amazing.
The Leonid Meteor Shower usually put on a good show if you’re out in the country and away from city lights.
My boys and I camped on our deck many August nights watching them. One evening we counted 200 before we were all too tired and fell asleep.
Good times. :)
