Quote: Here's how the new Goto owner decided to move it to his house some 35 miles away. To save on moving expenses, Steve and Caveman lifted the Goto onto a small furniture dolly and tied a rope from the scope pier to the rear bumper of Clint's van. It was necessary to drive slowly. On the freeway, Clint held his speed down to 55 mph, the maximum allowed in California for towing telescopes.
JUST PULLING YOUR LEG!!!!
No joking: here's a shot of the 6-inch Goto and the Caveman's 50mm Nippon Kogaku at the amazing full moon star party (June 29, 2007).
