It was heading South East. Used Back Country Navigator for precise direction. It seemed low-ish and was almost the size of my thumb extended outward. The tail was short and quite a beautiful blue color! It was heading out to sea. Neptune was above and to the right a bit, in the direction of the Cetus Constellation (used my Sky Map app).
