I was given a Orion StarSeeker II telescope for my birthday years ago.  Had been taking it camping with me, until I had to stop camping.  I'm about to start camping again and it will go with me.  I could use it here at the house, but I think there would be too much light polution.  I think I read somewhere that one of the better State Parks for star gazing here in Florida is the Kissimmmee Prairie Preserve. I'm going to have to plan a few trips there I think. :)
