What kind of telescope do you have Steve? Astronomy is a hobby of mine on a par with photography, except I don't have the hardware. I live in a primo dark-sky location, virtually no neighbors, about 4500' elevation, have a flat spot on the edge of a drop-off about 50 yards from the house and would love to set up an observatory, dome and all, sometime.
