As embarrassing as it is, it took a call from my wife to get me out to
review this interesting event. Karen called me asking if "Sirius" was in
the north-west sky. It looked fantastic through the venerable 4.5"
grab-n-go at 45x. Once she arrived home, we watched it until it faded from
view behind some passing clouds.

Should have added - almost directly overhead.

Just spotted the balloon in North Phoenix - very briefly. I was lucky
to see it at all given the clouds. Seems much lower than those I've
seen in the past.

I should have added that it is about 25 degrees off the horizon at about
12:35pm MST. It appears to be slowly moving to the west over the past
couple
of hours.
