Hi Rick,

Welcome to TSS!

It is very nice to have you here!

I started in my 60's and like Dave said, you are in good company here.

What are your interests and do you have binoculars or a scope yet?

Hi Rick. It's great to have you on board with us here on TSS. Very many of us older members started many years ago in this great hobby but over the years there were some interruptions due to things in life such as moving, job changes, raising a family, etc. But now we are here to stay and having a great time of it! Welcome to the forum Rick and the best of wishes on your backyard astronomy adventures.

I have a few binoculars and a scope (HSL Reflector Telescope,76mm Aperture 700mm Focal Length Astronomy Reflector Telescope) and just started to learn to use them. Since I received the telescope, the clouds have moved in and do not seem to clear this past week here in Ohio. Going to set it up and attempt some moon views when time allows. I have no idea what I am doing but looking forward to some night skies.
*Still attempting to navigate the forum.
