  As others in the NE USA, I took advantage of the wonderful clear weather
we had this past weekend. I got 3 hours Teff on Sunday morning. I saw 42
meteors in all. Below in the breakdown. I observed in Greenbelt as I wasn't
able to  get to my favorite site in the mountains. I observed from a clearing
near the edge of woods and a corn field; so had a 10% obstruction due to corn.

  The best two were a 0 magn. alpha Cap and a 0 magn. Peseid that both had a
beautiful blue-green color; and a 0 magn. sporadic that was blue-white colored.
