I drove up into the Los Altos Hills last night to watch the beginnings of the Leonids meteor shower.
Even driving up 280, I saw a few from my car. I found a really nice lookout that didn't have too many trees blocking the view. I was freezing, more noticeably so with Kevin so far away instead of cuddled under a blanket with me, but I still stayed out stargazing rather late. There weren't TOO many -- it hadn't hit the peak yet for California, and I no doubt would have seen more a couple hours later towards dawn, and tonight -- but I got a few good wishes in on a few spectacular ones. Either way, it was peaceful, and beautiful.
I really missed living somewhere you can see the stars.
