Being a single fulltime dad myself, with a going on 5 yr old son, very slowly lol.
Actually one of the most rewarding things in astronomy for me was and still
is, watching my son's face when he first spied Saturn, Jup's and the moon
through a telescope. Astronomy for us is a team thing, he comes out in the
yard with he lil 60mm, and crashes out in the car when he's ready. But I'm
sure one day he wont be so keen anymore, by that time I would of learnt
lots, have the gear I so desire and I can carry on in comfort lol. We also live
out in the bush. Not alot goes on here at night. So what perfect thing to
entertain yourself
with each night. Besdies I've never been big on
TV myself.
BTW, we're just waiting for March to come around again, so we can book
for 2006
