Thanks for the ideas guys. I have seen a lot of the things suggested and I do love to revisit objects, but I love that thrill of first light. You can only look at something the first time once. I have looked for a lot of glaxies in the 10.5 - 11 range and my little Mak just doesn't see them, and I'm pretty good at finding faint objects.
What is a good reference on the Astronomical League's Herschel 400? Where do I find it?
I expect to finish up the Messier list soon and I have found a number of the Caldwell objects but many are in the south and some are just beyond my scope. I also have several computer maps with objects to mag 13 and I am constantly seeking out those objects.
I think I need a new scope. (Yes!) It appears if I could find a mag 13 galaxy, I would never run out of objects.
