We (me, wife  daugter, her husand and children) went out and saw about 20 or so in a couple of hours, about 20 or so satellites, some good views of the stars and Milky Way. Very pleasant evening here in the Texas panhandle. Got out of the city lights to do it though.

I just walked out and saw two.  I was only out for ten minutes.

Clouds starting to move in up here a bit.

Pick a dark spot of the sky straight up and just stare.

The perseids will be coming from the NE, if it comes from any other direction its just a random piece of space debris.

Saw 15 in about a 45min period.  I was actually suprised considering I'm here in a large city.  Wish I could have made it further away from the light pollution.
