For me Greg, it was 30 or 40 years lost time!!!

Wait until the Moon has gone away and try the Andromeda galaxy again. You should see it without your binoculars - a fuzzy spot in the sky.

The Pleiades, M45, can be seen earlier in the evening to the North. This star cluster should look nice through your binoculars.

Try your binoculars on the fuzzy middle star of Orion's sword - you'll see M42 - a big bright nebula.
