I'm having no luck in trying to retrieve an old thread that I began in (08?) 2010. The subject was about my find of an SPI 525 60 X 1000 telescope while on a road trip. I've lost most computer memory as well as too much of my own. Knowing my style I probably didn't have the telescope model in the title. Besides getting a blast from the past, ex telescope, ex lover, ex solo road trip, my interest is (maybe) primarily to help my cousin sell the scope down in SoCal. I offered to write a CL ad, and it would be wonderful to be able to furnish some photos. TIA!

Hello strdst,

I Googled "SPI 525 60X1000 CloudyNights" and looked for your user name and dates and when I saw the Topic Title "So I'm on a Road Trip" I said to my self Ah Ha, that's got to be the one.

HAPPY SKIES AND KEEP LOOKING UP Jethro
