Cool What considerations when "seeing"???

Hi guys! I was just wondering, as we're getting into winter, what considerations should I take into account when taking the ol' telescope outside for a 'gander'?? I know about cool down time, which you'd assume would be longer in winter if your scope is kept inside, but is there anything else?

By the way, Friday night was my first night out on my lonesome using my telescope!!!! Saw Saturn, Jupiter, Omega, Rigil Kentauras (Alpha - could almost see the split).. Can't wait to get a barlow and more EPs.
