Ok! Ok! Ok!  So I'm going to Amish country to look at binoculars!  You don't
have to twist my arm anymore.  My last visit there yielded a life bird -
Northern Wheatear -

Anyone remember that amazing few weeks?  I can't get over how many of you
have been there.  Robert Hershberger must be pretty well-off if each of you
bought something from him!!



Seriously, thanks to all of you for suggestions and advice.  I will take my
time and select well since I don't want to do this again for a long time.
The Vortex lifetime "anything" warranty certainly has my attention as well
as the overall best rating for mid-priced binoculars.
