10:09 p.m. The Staff & Management have commenced meteor watch. The night sky over the lake has cleared...dark black sky...full of stars...there goes one...sounds of a boat on the water...bats circling overhead...a big one with a long tail just passed directly over the "Great Wall"...a dog barks...mosquitoes have located me...it's 10:24 p.m. ... Neck begins to ache...waiting...just saw one over the trees to the north...sounds of traffic passin over the bridge by Port au Prince...enthusiasm starting to fade at 10:34 p.m. ... Thinking surely if I give it just a little longer, they will come...coming to the fast realization, I'm no longer the patient observer I once was...10:42 p.m. ... Barking again...many planes have passed over...Lake Claibore is clearly a flight path...a faint one streaks by...reflect on memories of Oohs heard from different parts of the lake in years past when a big one passed overhead...is anyone else out there tonight? ...10:53 p.m. ... buzzing in ear ...0ne just flew south over the boathouse...fear losing blood to Mosquitos...what is that dog barking at...his barking has caused a chorus of others to sound off down the lake...Wow, a gigantic orange 3/4 moon has just appeared above the horizon over the northern part of the lake...it's 11:02 p.m. ....
...didn't realize I could actually insert a live picture until now...I
am assuming I'm missing
hundreds while I peck out this post on the phone...barking...fish
jumping...11:09 p.m. there the fish goes again...turning back to the sky...fish again...if I could just see one more good one...let's try that moon again...whoops ... It got put up above some how????
Well it's now 11:15 p.m. ... I believe I have seen or "not seen" enough meteors to last me another year...11:20 p.m. Bedtime...headed in...
Staff & Management
