On a positive note, that link shows all the major showers though the link is anchored at the Perseids...

Sorry 'bout that.

No problem the link was good but I was trying to check my calendar to see if I am off to see these and the dates did not add up. Looks good though.

Did any of you guys get to see the very strong Perseid Shower a few years ago?

I was lucky that it was a fairly clear night and got to see it.It was EXCITING!!!

This year I never even bothered to look for it.
