The night of August 11 is the Perseid meteor
shower. The dark skies at Lost Maples are
perfect for seeing the meteors, and this year there was
no moon. We stayed up until midnight to see
several very bright meteors that left glowing trails.
The picture above is a very small and dim one; there
were plenty of these. There were also a few on
the night of the 12th, but the clouds rolled in by
11PM. |
|
It was still very dry,
even though there was rain in the Spring. The
foreground of this picture is usually under water. |
|
|
In wetter years, water ran
across this trail and there was a pond on the right
side. |
|
|
I did find some water,
but not much(note size of leaf!). |
|
|
There were a few
trail improvements during the Covid shut down. The
following are a few of the new descriptive signs that
were installed. |
