I positioned a lawn chair in such a way as to have the best view. I was a bit disappointed. I had hoped that it would be like the last time the sky was clear during a meteor shower. It was the most amazing thing that I had ever seen. The sky was lit by what looked like a fireworks show without the sound the last time. This time I only saw about five falling stars and six or seven shooting stars. It was not the show that I was expecting, but it was fun listening to the sounds of the world waking up. I stayed out until dawn broke. I was quite chilled and stiff as a board. At first I thought I'd never get out of the chair, and with my knee in the shape that it's in, I was afraid that I'd tumble down the steps trying to get back into the house.

It's amazing how much the temperature changed. By afternoon it was really warm. I couldn't wait to get outside and enjoy it. Hubby was burning some debris, and the flies must have thought it was a BBQ or that I was a pile of chicken poop because they were swarming around my the gazillions. They drove me crazy!

It is beginning to look like another beautiful day. I hope that everyone's skies will be lit with fireworks, but not with flies.
