| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Meteor was huge and glowing green, literally like kryptonite is portrayed. We just moved to Texas 2 days before we saw the meteor, so not overly familiar with directions, and using Google maps is weird on my iPhone. But we were on 1788 heading south around County Road 140-150 or so. |
