@Astrolite That is an awesome looking light bucket! I had a real good friend that took me down to the Texas Star Party a couple of times, it was a really cool experience.
The Texas Star Party is one that I would love to attend someday. I was more heavily into astronomy about 15 years ago and traveled the NE with a friend attending many star parties. Even made it up to Stellafane in Vermont in 2000. The Obsession 15" is a wonderful scope, it's just big enough to give you some great deep sky views and yet small enough to be easily transportable.
A tow behind camper for the SS, with enough storage for the telescope, would be a great star party adventure!
