Welcome back to astronomy to you and your son. An 8" dob is a fantastic starting place, plenty of aperture, easy to setup and use, just watch out for aperture fever! It is a very expensive disease.
Mozzies are a nuisance, just remember to make sure you keep repellent well away from optical surfaces, especially expensive eyepieces, DEET eats optical coatings!
Look forward to hearing about the objects you observe over the next few months.
