Hi Greg,
Great stuff
I too went from an old 6" newt to the SW 12" goto dobby. some great views through that thing! Don't discount getting a powermate (televue) or barlow lens to double the useage of your existing lenses.
Also another thing you can try is some astrophotography with that scope, including deep space.

but in the meantime, enjoy the views at the eyepiece
Cheers
