Welcome Kirkus! Your location on the edge of the Pismo dunes definitely has some challenges to observing/scope longevity, such as keeping sand out of your equipment and salt spray. Does your location suffer much from the marine layer? If so, you could probably escape it and some light polution by heading north/inland towards SLO. From what I recall of the hills in that area, there has to be something good around.

On another note, you are probably very well situated there to watch the launches out of Vandenberg. Have you ever tried hauling out your scope for that?
