This morning I awoke to perfectly clear skies...and freezing 
temperatures! Our lows at night have been 20 degrees above freezing, so 
I spent a fairly cold morning observing very little Leonid activity. 
Unfortunately, someone left a nearby light on overnight so I had to 
adjust where I set my sleeping bag up to make use of a tree to block the 
light. This also cost me about 15% of my FOV. All in all though, I had 
an enjoyable morning listening to the waves crash on the beach and 
watching a few meteors cross the sky. My full report (also reported to 
IMO)is below:
