Every year during the sleepy August summer nights, the Perseids meteor shower graces us with her presence. With backdrops like the Dardanelles, Chimney Peak and Haines Peak, the show is unequivocally breathtaking in the central Sierra Nevadas. The shower is expected to peak this weekend, August 11th-13th and viewers can anticipate 50 or more meteors per hour. Pre-dawn viewing is said to be the best time to get view the full brilliance of this cosmic wonder. This writer has already seen some fantastic and brilliant "fireballs" (meteors as bright as Venus) during evening walks with the dogs the past few nights. Grab your blankets, water bottles, and head up to Calaveras County to view this beautiful cosmic dance.
