I take it from your preferences for dark sky locations that most of you live southside.
I live in Murrumbateman, which has the potential to be fairly dark - when neighbours don't leave all their outside lights on.
I got my first scope last week, a 10" GSO Dob, and have had it out a couple of times (just in the yard) and had a couple of looks at Jupiter.
I hope to attend the CAS meeting tomorrow night and maybe learn a thing or two.

Hi Jonathon, I think we live all over, but southside is the gateway to some beaut mountainous dark sites out that side of town. When we finally all get together, welcome mate.
