This is the same story for me too. I have a 6" Orion dopson telescope that was fun at first but you can only look at the planets and moon so many times. Each time is cool but a little less every time. Trying to find other objects is literally finding a needle in a haystack.
If I were to do it over again I would have spent more money, at least $4000, and bought a motorized go-to telescope. They are GPS equipped and will automatically go-to objects out of a database and stay fixed on the object accounting for the earth's rotation. Having astrophotography capability would be great as well.
