Hey Scooter,
Generally, the higher something is in the sky, the better the seeing will be because you are looking through less atmosphere.
While it isn't ideal to be in and out from inside because your eyes won't dark adapt properly, I say anything that gets your scope used is good! I am sure the Bris-Vegans will chip in with offers of ark sky sites and meet-ups etc.
Every once in while, I would suggest you either turn the lights out inside or take your scope somewhere dark and really enjoy it with dark adapted eyes. If you can set up somewhere that you can't directly see any lights, then that's a good start. Dark adaption will make a real difference to what you can see.
But as I said, if you are using your scope and enjoying it, even when not dark adapted, then that's OK... better than a scope that sits in the corner and doesn't get used!
Al.
