The Perseids are here!

The annual Perseid meteor shower is always a fun event to check out.  Some folks have already seen these "shooting stars" and the shower peaks early next week.  The moon may get in the way, but if you want to enjoy watching for meteors on warm, summer nights, take a peek over the next week or so late at night.  Here's a link to more information about the "Perseids vs. Moonlight"...enjoy!
