Perseids Meteor Shower

 Okay! So yesterday and tonight, I stayed up to watch the meteor shower. Apparently, I've been watching for the past 3 years XD 

anyway, this year i was super excited to see the shower because we moved outside of the city limits, and now, have alllll of this open land and sky *_____* 

no trees to block anything.
no street lights (well there ONE, but it doesnt reach our house) 
and it was a CLEAR night tonight ;A; 


last night, i watched from midnight, to 2:30am and saw about 20
tonight, i started at 12:30am to about 1:30/2:00am and saw about 20 something! *_____* the first one of the night i saw, was SOOOO BIG. they were amazing this year ♥  anyway, i was not disappointed this year in the show. I will watch again tomorrow night to see how many I'll see. 

Just for those wondering, this is the view I pretty much have every night when its not cloudy its not the same meteor shower, or whatever, but it is the same amount of starts i see on a nightly basis.
