I saw it in the western sky tonight, but I also saw a really bright satellite moving from north to south at the same time.

Yep... The one we have been watching lately usually travels from south to north in pretty much a straight line. Usually about the same time as the ISS, but it moves a lot faster.

Well, My wife and I found ity tonight. Spotted it low on the northern horizon, and it moved to the east slightly while rising higher in our point of observation. Of course, it always fades away when it dips below a certain point in its orbit.

prime should be on 21 inst., Sojourner and right now, the weather looks good and warm....wow, i'm amazed you could cut thru all the light pollution to get to the N Horizon or even low up a bit (3 fingers?). I can't do that from my place and I'm only a little bit nnw of you! I can always get Polaris and Cassiopeia wnw but that's about it for me lookin' to the north from my address.............got any little tricks or tips you might want to share?.....mac

That might work, but I can see pretty much everything above the Seton/ Wal Mart line to my North, until I run into my neighbors ash tree which blocks the view to the east.
If the ISS is coming from the South, better viewing for me is in the front yard. I have had a number of folks stop by and ask me what I am looking at, and then they get excited to stay and see if it really does come over.
I have gotten pretty good at guessing where it will show up.

Look to the sky through a tube.

I have to go down the street to see more than a little sliver of sky, due to all the trees in my yard.
I typically will go down to the lake.
