It's a gorgeous night in the Chicago-land area. Even in my light polluted suburb, I was still able to see 2 or 3 shooting stars in my backyard. I was looking pretty much directly up, oriented North-Northeast. I set my chair in my lawn so the house obstructed the moon, which was REALLY bright.

I wish I was in the country for this one though. It is a gorgeous night. I haven't sat out and looked at the stars in a while. Kind of puts you in your place when you do...but at the same time you take in the beauty of it all and you really appreciate everything.
