Just about to set off on a slow move back to WA with 6 scopes, 2 eq mounts and a 10" dob on board. Was thinking might just set up a few places along the way and invite the locals to have a look at our great Southern skies. Not really knowledgable on the sky as yet, but have a few books I can refer too. Its my small way of contributing to the IYA.

I know it's a bit of a "dog leg" Bill, but there's plenty of room to park your van at my place for a few weeks.
Cheers mate.
