Glad you had a good time observing, Michael.
On Mars, barlow with the GSO 20mm, and when seeing is not too bad, on the 15mm should give you pretty good views. But as Davo P has demonstrated last night, temperature might be a significant issue down your way. Maybe you'll need to invest in a fan. Just keep an eye out for Davo's posts on the issue. Let him do all the hard work for us first.
Just to clear up a bit of a misconception: The wider view of an EP will not give you increased resolution; it just means it has a larger field of view for a given magnification, that's all. (Of course if it's a high end wide-view then it will have not only wider view, but better transmission, contrast, sharpness/resolution etc.)
