Saw the Geminids in the bleakest part of West Texas one year. Absolutely and simply indescribable, even for one whose vocabulary is as awe inspiring as mine. (joke, joke) I'm astounded that traveling to remote parts of the country to see such things isn't as popular and unremarkable as going to Disney World.

I've had the rotten luck of being stuck in the southern portion of 'upstate NY'...
Meaning Southern NY to the 'rest of the country'.
Why is this rotten?
Because for the past 8 years there has been rain, fog, or some form of weather interfering with visibility every time there is a meteor shower.
I got lucky once and saw comet Hyakutake.

No light pollution there!

I was looking forward to watching the Geminids this year, but a snow storm made that impossible. I had to settle for a warm fire and a movie on my HD screen. It was terrible sacrifice :-)
