07.26.05 Now for something completely different
Most nights, I love to take a swim after dark. One night last week, I was able to see 4 satellites pass overhead. Sunday night, while I was floating in the pool, I kept staring into the sky. It's amazing how your eyes adjust and the longer you are out there, the more stars you can see. Well I finally got to see what I was hoping to see all along. A shooting star! It was so cool. It took up about 1/3 of the visible sky and it seemed to be directly over me. It was great to be alive....

I don't know why shooting stars are such a thrill, but they are. Your heart skips a beat when you see one.
I'm never good at spotting satellites.

Aren't they the best! I've found the secret to seeing satellites is to not look directly at them. I always see them in my peripheral vision.
There is nothing as cool as floating in water, looking at stars. You have to try it sometime if you haven't already.
