I'm Excited

Hi Guys,

As most of you know i have for the last two days, or make that nights, have learnt, auto guiding.

This may sound like a 13 year old who has just meet his first girlfriend, but i just stand there and watch it do it's magic with a big grin on my face, gee I'm glad it is dark.

Just had to mention that. yep, I'm excited.

Leon

I loved seeing my kids take their first steps. It was like that at Duckadang and now I feel it all over again

Onya Leon.

Top stuff Leon.
Who cares if we sound like little kids when we do new things with our gear.

At least we are having fun!
