I was driving back from Wisconsin to Naperville, Illinois and remembered that it was a good night for the ISS. I pulled out my notes for Naperville and realized I was not going to make it back to Naperville by that time but knew I was close enough that the data I had would be good enough for sighting and I hoped GeoTrailblazer1 would be out. I pulled off I39 north of Rochelle, IL and waited. Right on time I could see it moving from my west toward the southeast, was a brighter sighting because the shuttle as leaving the ISS that night.

The data between me and GeoTrailblazer1 at Cassville follows
