I've thought about this a bit longer, and there are
too many choices to suggest specific eyepieces, but I do recommend the following focal lengths:
15mm (any), 30mm (wide or ultrawide), 55-56mm (Plossl--you'll love this one)
Maybe, you can add a 10mm for high power, and then use a 2X barlow to yield 7.5mm with the 15 and 5mm with the 10 if you go double star hunting or get exceptionally good seeing for lunar/planetary.
