Hi guys,

The family went to the local nursing home a few nights ago as they had a fair.

I thought why couldn't i bring my scope down and let them have a look thru it?

I am looking for targets that the older generation, with failing eyes can spot easily.

I think i would make good use of the 2" ultra wide 30mm.

Full moon would be an obvious one and at the other end of the month, then mily way.

I do not want to make it hard and cause any embarassment because they can't see.

Any suggestions?
