How did your Perseids go?

..........Sorry that it seems like The Messier Pro has disappeared, but a family visit, two birthdays, an anniversary, and the beginning of the new school year have driven me to take a de facto vaction for the last two weeks. There are blogs that will be up soon on Ursa Minor and Draco, Bootes and Cocrona Borealis, and Hercules.

..........The viewing event that we had for the Perseids drew thirty people, although not as many Perseids as in previous years. Too a lot of people's surprise, the next night also had a large number of Perseid meteors.
