I recall seeing an IIS facebook post that there were several transits coming up but it had slipped my mind. I meant to look it up on Heavens Above to see if there was one that night visible from my place.
It would not have been even a minute after Andy and I were talking about him seeing it the night before and there it was rising over his shoulder! I am just glad I had the mechanics of the gear set up already and could just manually point and hope.
I am kind of glad I did not look it up, I might have planned getting a shot of it and would have missed it for sure!
