Great meteor shower -- no moon -- colorful meteors.But I can't go -- there is nowhere to camp in Calif due to Covid closures.I'll have to wait for another year. Oh, well. Can't really whine about this when so many other folks have it so much rougher than I do.

Yes, the Governor has shutdown camping. The Inyo National Forest is cooperating too.

Day of the Triffids? Maybe it's good you can't go. :C

Do you have a lot of light pollution at your house? I have minimal so I’ll be watching. It is cold outside so I’ll see how long I can last.

Just watched the space station go by. I think I will be able to see them and the satellites going by.

Head for the boonies -- meteor shower Sunday nite . . .

I live in suburban SoCal -- there are about ten stars in the sky on a good night.

And flyboy, even boondocking is a no go in the national forests.

2020 is just not my year. Next year is going to be better, I think!!

I was boondocking in anza borrego last weekend. The ranger drove up and glanced at my campsite on his way by. That was the extent of his interaction.

Camping is still good to go in SoCal deserts. The rangers are not busting nice camping people.

I just found out that the BLM is still allowing boondocking (but not campground camping). That is official policy, or so I was told. That opens up some possibilities . . . .
