Hi guys
How can one ever tire of this hobby. For me if its cloudly, I am reading books and listening to astronomy related topics. The History Channel has the lastest in the series of "Universe", which is brilliant IMO.
I also love the public outreach activities and astro society commitments that I am involed in. It keeps me driven and passionate. Remember that there is still a great many people out there that have never looked through a telescope. I think sharing your passion for astronomy with someone else is the greatest buzz!
On other nights we are getting ready for and organising Border Stargaze, which poses its own challenges. It gives me the chance to chat to and form networks with a different people from all walks of life and differing levels of expertise in astronomy. I have formed some good friendships with astronomers from Parkes, Coona and the US and would never have met these amazing poeple if did not have this interest.
However, soon as new moon hits, and weather is good Im out at our Dark Sky site with a simple Dob, crusin the heavens as there is still alot I have not seen and would love to learn about.
Just my thoughts.
Cheers Petra d.
