The Facebook screen shot I took yesterday above

Kind of funny... the moon NEVER moved! It was a “live video” of a photograph! LOL

@LTT1Consider the source, I guess (and I don't mean FB). 

I watched via timeanddate dot com and @NASA on twitter, depending who had the better picture (depending on location).  It varied among different observatories in CA and AZ and a site in Perth, Australia.

It was beautiful, and well worth getting up early!

it was something to see here in Los Angeles - really bronzey brick color.  lots of people up looking up in my area 4:30  - 5 a.m.!!!

Waaaaah........a clear sky in January in NE Ohio?  No way!

I truly regret not going out to view it because I think it was visible here!  I confess I stayed up to watch Louis until I crashed, and couldn't budge to dress and go out-

Same here.  However, the previous night we had a beautiful humongous white moon.  Just knew those darn clouds would move back in, which is pretty typical.

So many people fell for this......lol!

Some people are so gullible that it just makes me roar. Haaa

It is funny that a few were questioning and writing something like “I left a few hours, came back, and the moon hasn’t moved?”

LOL

Someone who was more knowledgeable certainly than me asked “where are you?” It can’t be seen where you are. The best view is supposed to be on the west coast of the US!

I hope some of the questioners were people in this country!

What surprises me the most is, at this house, the moon from the middle of the night til dawn just pours in on our bed.

And I think that is why I have the cray-zee-est dreams all the way up until late morning sometimes.

So with the moon out so bright last night, nuttin.

Now two or three nights ago, I was kicking Jon Hamm's butt playing poker in a busy restaurant.

First thing I do when I get up, still dark, is look out the front windows.

I didn't see the moon but it was so bright, it was casting shadows.  Came into the back of the house and it looked as if I had left the porch light on.

It was too cold for me to want to go out and look at it.
