Stargazing

Last night Jason and I drove out where there were few city lights and watched the meteor shower. Unfortuneately the picture above is not from our camera and the show we saw was not quite as active or amazing, but we did see quite a few flashes of light. We put our blanket in the middle of the road and laid on the hard pavement and waited for our meteors to show themselves. (dont worry we were just inside a closed gate so no cars could accidentally run over us :). I cant remember ever seeing so many at a time. It was so relaxing (even on the pavement) to be out away from the city (sort of), listen to the sounds of nature, smell the summer air and even get a cool breeze as we watched natures fireworks in the sky. Thanks Jason for helping me stop and appreciate the simple things in life.
Did anyone else go out and see the show??
