(meteorobs) Observation December 13/14 2010

Hi Pierre, 



Quite an adventure, not like the little jaunt down to the NJAA for the 09 Quads. Sorry we don't have hot showers there, but my house is only 1 km away :) 



I was too sick for the adventure to South Carolina...As a result, the Gems were a bust for me.

Hello all, 

To escape the poor weather a couple of weeks ago, and to seek clear   
dark skies, Raymond Dubois and I drove for 19 hours (1800 km) to   
Georgia (U.S.A.) to catch the Geminids under clear skies.  We were   
determined to see the peak!  It may sound crazy to go that far for a   
single night of observing, but for this meteor shower, I felt it was   
worth it :)
