La Honda

Nothing doing until about 2:20 A.M., then they seemed to come in small groups, sometimes two or three in an instant and sometimes spread out in time and area.

A couple long streaks with golden trails lasting several seconds, and a few >1 mag.

Transparency was good, but lots of twinkle and marine layer turbulence which settled a bit around 3:30, when I got a good view of Jupiter in the 4" refractor. Not much Leonid activity after that. Definitely not as good as last year IMO, but entertaining nonetheless.
