One of my favorite memories is the Persied meteor shower of 1993. Comet Swift-Tuttle had returned for the first time since its discovery in 1962 so everyone was expecting a great show. The moon phase was good. A crescent came up about dawn. About 300 watchers started the night on Little Mountain. Most were gone by midnight Fire balls were seen before total darkness! A half dozen of us organized so we could cover the whole sky. We had click counters keeping both hourly and accumulative counts. Between 2:00am and 3:00am we counted over 150 and a total of over 750 for the night! I remember meteorites splitting and then splitting again. Brent Watson, Patrick Wiggins, my wife Karen, and myself stayed till dawn. What a memory! Deloy
