Although I am dog-tired. I've been working in the garden
for several hours (raking fallen ... no not falling stars
or meteorites but dead leaves) and installing part of our
outdoor Xmas lighting.

Will do so!

clear skies +

shooting stars,

P.S.: I saw a very bright Taurid several days ago - a deep orange color
but a very short trail because it must have been traveling head-on in
the direction I was looking up - and it was close to the Taurid radiant
(another reason why its path was so foreshortened).
