Stan;
I do less, but try to enjoy it more. I have my reading glasses around my
neck and I make printouts that are a larger font. I revel in the idea that
people who are in their 30's and having a laugh at my expense and are
walking the same path. When I was in my 30's I did my best not to chuckle
at folks who wore glasses, either for observing or reading. I am hoping
that I can reap some of that good will.
There are a wide variety of reasons that I chose a GOTO system as my newest
telescope, but one of those reasons was the opportunity to stop using star
charts so much as the main finder mechanism and let the smart telescope do
the work.
Interesting that you would post this on my 54th birthday.
I am now officially "too old to die young".
What cha' gonna do?
