I am truly blessed that I am able to live where I can see it any night of the week if there aren't clouds in the way. The most memorable viewing I think I've ever had was eight or nine years ago where I was watching a lunar eclipse with some friends. We were up at a fire lookout in the middle of a lake and when the eclipse was in the dark period we could see the Milky Way clearly reflected on the lake, it was magical.
