Researched the hobby for about 6 months and finally purchased my first telescope early this year ( Bintel 10" Dob ) Thanks Don !!

Observed Jupiter, Saturn , Moon and DSO's ( totally hooked now )

Great hobby to keep your brain active and your patience in check

Anyway enough for now

Clear Skies to All
