Amateur Astronomy the Old Fashioned Way with Shelley and Me

?The best telescope is the one that gets used the most.? ?The older I get, the lazier I get.?  Ain?t both of those things the freaking truth, and especially the latter, muchachos?  As Gaia has rolled around ol? Sol yet another time, I?ve found myself increasingly less likely or willing to set up my 12-inch Dobsonian or even my 8-inch SCT for a quick backyard gander at the Moon?or anything else.
