Living in Colorado, USA and currently exploring my astronomy hobby and posting videos here. Previous video topics here are my other hobbies of Jeeping and Jeep repair/modifications, general home repair and improvement, organic gardening, high jumping, and anything coffee related. Come along with me for a small taste of Colorado living and a heavy dose of astrophotography.
