Moon Observation 9/30/10

On, 9/30/10, I looked up at the sky from my driveway at around 12:30 am.  The sky was pretty clear and a could see a couple of bright stars.  The moon was big and just about half of it was illuminated.  The moon was in its third quarter phase.  It appeared towards the west of the sky.  I am almost positive that I was able to see Sagittarius' teapot like figure in the west, and what might have been Scorpius close by it.
