re: Geminid Meteor Shower

Years ago I saw a spectaculat meteor shower. I was in the boat with my brother in law, and we’d always leave the dock when it was pitch black. I’d just lay down on the bench seat for the ride, hoping I wasn’t going to die. Saw a shooting star and was like, “Oh that’s cool - never seen one before.” Then saw another, and another, etc. In a 45 minute boat ride, I saw more than two dozen meteors. It was amazing.
One a few years ago was decent, but nothing on that level. Otherwise, haven’t had much luck.
