Thanks!
Too cloudy to see it where I am now though.

The full moon looked 3 times it's size as it was coming up over the horizon this evening as I was driving home from work.
Absolutely breath taking.
Every time I look at it I think to myself: "We went there! People walked, drove a car and even played golf on the Moon!"
I think that's the greatest human achievement so far.
