I'll paint you a word picture of what I saw, earlier. It's maybe a half-dozen shots of Home Plate in sequence, with Spirit visible. The rover covers a lot of territory between shots, so it's not a smooth animation, more of a strobe effect. It does leave tracks, though, so you know where it's been, coming onto Home Plate at about the 3 o'clock mark and moving clockwise until it settles in for the winter at the 12 o'clock.
