My kids and I got our telescopes out to night and had a look. We could see it fairly clearly in the southeastern sky.

i went out to look also, and i saw a pinkish colored star peking from behind the clouds, and one or two white stars....lol so am thinking that super bright pinkish one was probably it... (least that's what i'm telling myself anyway lol) Thanks Quest for that link to an awesome pic...grins

Take heart JC! Mars will be VERY viewable for several weeks yet.

I saw it last night when I went to visit my mom. Where she lives there aren't as many lights as in the city so you get a pretty good view of the sky. It was very bright, with a slight reddish/pink color, and huge compared to what it usually looks like. I just wish I'd had my binoculars with me to get a closer look. Catlin
