I went out last night and parked on Antelope Dr., a couple of blocks from my home. Like Kim, once I located it in binoculars, it was easy to pick out in the orange haze to the west, with the naked eye. Without binoculars, as the air turned steady, I could see 3 or 4 degrees of tail. The nucleus appeared to be a little dimmer than Venus. There was a dome shaped mountain directly below it in the desert, this made it easy for my family to find. I think that the policeman, that parked about 5 car lengths behind me, must have figured out what the weird family was doing. He should have come up and looked with us. When we first picked it out, it was right on the edge of the yellow-orange haze and the light blue sky. It was fun to see another comet that we didn't need a telescope to enjoy. Dave
