Other then cars PC Gaming.
Yes it is addicting, and does get expensive fast. I want to upgrade my PC more, but unless one of my video cards die it will have to wait.

Beautiful refractor and German equatorial mount . Kudos.
In 1980 and 1981, I was an observer at Allegheny Observatory in Pittsburgh and used the Thaw 30" refractor to photograph survey stars on 8"x10" plates -- 30 to 40 minute hand guided exposures. This experience gave me great respect for our 'all glass friends.'
An article I wrote on the restoration work I completed on the 13" Fitz/Clark refractor was picked up by both S&T and Astronomy magazines: Sept 1984 and April 1987 respectively.

I tend to spend part of my winter down in South Georgia performing maintenance on my other mistress.
