Daniel,
Go the 10", your eyes will thank you for it.
An 8" F6 is the same length as a 10" f5 (4.9) and weighs only slightly more. If you want to see more then aperture rules.

GSO Superview 15 mm and 20 mm EP's are relatively cheap and good value and they work well. They are my most used EP's for almost everything.
Get Stellarium on your PC ( if you haven't already done so ) and plan your viewing around what it shows you is locally viewable that night. Too early to get too complicated to start with, keep it simple to begin with and enjoy the dark skies you seem to have.
