   Sunday morning I was up in the mountains of West Virginia observing and
managed to get an hour of meteor counts in. I didn't count for more than an
hour as I wanted to get some good looks at comet LINEAR A2 and the Deep-Sky
with my 20-inch Dob. and binoculars. I think I may have seen my first Perseid
during that hour. Also, I could see comet LINEAR A2 with the naked-eye at 5.5
magnitude.
