Thanks! Now if I only lived under darker skies. I am excited though. Double stars, clusters, planets and a few bright nebulae should be very nice. I still have to get the mount tweaked a bit, and the C14 collimated (shipping probably wasn't kind to it), but feel capable to do both. I should be able to "warm start" the Gemini 2 after that and going outside to view for a few hours should be really nice. A Starlight Instruments Crayford focuser and a nice orange aluminum dew shield are on the short list.

Thanks again,
