I saw Halley's Comet with the naked eye (and an inexpensive pair of binoculars) from a spot in the desert near Joshua Tree.
It was just before sunrise, and the Eastern sky was already beginning to turn light, but the comet was up there looking like a big flashlight beam in the sky. The comet itself appeared to big almost the same size as the moon. Good thing I had got up to take a leak, or I would have missed it.

Glad you saw Halley’s. Comets are always something special due to the number one may or may not see in a lifetime.

Good thing you missed it when you got up to take that leak! I'd hate what happens when a wet comet comes around the next time. 8<)
