Shooting Star Party

Everyone is exhausted after our "Shooting Star Party" early this morning... I got the kids up at 12:30 AM and bundled them up, packed up popcorn, string cheese, and huge down sleeping bags... we drove out to the West Glacier trailhead and spent nearly 2 hours in the back of the pickup looking up at the stars and watching the peak of the Perseid meteor shower. It was great - we saw dozens of shooting stars even though broken clouds were rolling through. October and Elias ended up staying home, cuddled up in that big bed, and that was a pretty good decision, too...
