Unboxing new toys is always fun!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What’s better to do on a hot summer day than unboxing a new telescope! My friend Robby stopped by today with his new Celestron Advanced VX 6″ Refractor Telescope<\/a>. We kicked back in the shade on my back porch, busted out some cold Iced Tea, and got to work assembling this cool new toy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It came with all the bells and whistles. Fully Computer Controlled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
