(meteorobs) Thanksgiving Fireball



Happy Thanksgiving to all you lucky watchers with clear skies.  With my LM 
(limited magnitude) of about 3.0, I was pleasantly surprised to walk outside 
just to say hello to Venus and see a beautiful fireball (reported to IMO, 
which I hope is the correct agency).
