Exactly. But for me, it's been about 4 months!!

I don't know how imagers drag out all that gear out and set up every time they want to run some exposures.

An observatory and permanent setup would definitely help!
Unfortunately it's just not going to happen any time soon.
I'll be trying to keep myself motivated throughout the day to set the scope up at dusk tonight. It's going to be a hot day so have to wait until it cools down a bit
