The Lyrid Meteor shower should be at its best viewing point in the early morning hours of April 22nd.

The comet Thatcher revolves around the sun once every 415 years. Although once a year the Earths orbit meets with the tail of this comet producing a meteor shower! This year for 2018, an average of 22

"shooting stars" should be able to be viewable

every hour. The clear mountain skyline a

perfect stage for this beautiful

light show!

The Periwinkle or otherwise known as Vinca grows along the mountainsides signaling the arrival of spring!
