[Ansteorra] This weekend's meteor shower

[Gerald of Leesville]

Of course, if everyone came out to the last weekend of the Texas Renaissance
Festival SCA demo they would be in the right place (an area far away from
"city" lighting, large cleared areas of land surrounded by woods, benches,
etc.) at the right time (we're setting the clock for 3:30 (we just hope our
cabin-mates understand)) to view the showers AND you could work the demo the
next day!

Of course, I might be just a little bit biassed about the whole thing.

In service to the dream with a song in my heart, I am
