Yes, Shel, the moon (and sun) do rise and set at (slightly) different
azimuths each day. I haven't searched out web sites that would tell me
about it, but the US Naval Observatory web site (http://www.usno.mil)
has a lot of "ephemeris" type stuff, including sunrise/sunset and
moonrise/moonset times, so they might have what you're looking for.
