Remarks was just sitting poolside when the guestion shooting star / meteor came between two trees I was looking north ..It went over me and went south .I watched it till couldn't see the tail anymore.Had to turn to my left..Was just so excited didn't even grab my phone to take a picture .I could not believe how brilliant and the length of tail seemed to be yellow orange and red .I was awe struck. Never have seen anything like before .Have seen a couple of shooting stars before but never like this It seems I just could have reached up and grabbed it .As I said not an astrologer so I hope I got the direction and angles right for you .
