Meteor shower viewing spot?

Hi all, the Leonid meteor shower is ongoing, with peak viewing expected to be Thursday night into Friday morning. For any people into this kind of thing, where do you suggest going to view? Obviously we need to get away from the city, but does anyone have a favorite spot? Thanks!

It's the Perseids, not Leonids. Thanks for tipping us off to the upcoming meteors!

D'oh, you're right, I meant the Perseids!

This one is historic, too, I'm told. There's debris from 1079 (yes, the year) in this path. http://www.popularmechanics.com/space/a22200/meteor-shower-of-the-decade/
