Maybe it is a small meteor shower?

Laid out on the deck (South East Cape) this morning before dawn and got a good look at several little ones in about a half hour. Kind of cool to know that they are tiny bits of Halley's comet, left over from its previous fly-bys.



No b-tchin\' in the Baja.

Going into Zac's for dinner in Zacatitos. We are about 7 miles further out from town between Shipwrecks and 9 Palms. Life is good out here. But the road sucks after the rains. Keeps out the riff raff.

One hell of a show in San Felipe! Following night there was a good show off Hiway-78 in Palo Verde



Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I'm currently living on the Big Island, and my roommates and I went up to Mauna Kea from 12-230am. It was an amazing show. I saw quite a few big ones, and a ton of little ones. It was pretty cool!
