Great choice - excellent scope.

Russell and Wayne have given you a very good advice on things to add to your shopping list.
(especially agree with height adjustable viewing chair).

Another important item will be your red headlight (or torch if you prefer).
Its good for changing eyepieces in the dark without destroying your night adapted vision. (Headlight has extra feature of leaving both hands free ! )

I presume the Orion comes with a right angled finder scope. So that's good.
But I also think a Red Dot Finder (RDF) is a very cheap but essential addition. (If you don't mind drilling a couple of more holes in your OTA)
