Here is my report for the morning of Jan 4 2008.
Since there was a 3 hour gap caused by clouds, I have considered it as two separate observations, sessions A and B.
At the very end, I have included totals for both sessions for NAMN inclusion.
Observer Wayne T Hally (HALWA) at the NJAA observatory in High Bridge, NJ.
All were visual observations, showers determined by String alignment and using talking watch and tape recorder.
The location is 74:53:54 W, 40:40:52 N, 253 meters. IMO code 25186.
Also observing from this site was Pierre Martin, I look forward to his report usinh his younger eyes.
