Re: (meteorobs) Orionid Photographs for Oct 18/19 ZAYGE
Hi Sue, I'm down near the D.C area. Its called Rockville Md. Lights
everywhere, so I have to drive up to the mountains about 40 miles away to
get 'dark'. Did not see one metier last night cause the clouds moved in.
I'll try for a short time tonight if clear..
Ray
