Thank you, thank you, thank you. I found Andromeda last night. It was purely by luck. I didn't think it was visible at such an hour. I was up till about 3 last night and I went outside to grab something from my car, glanced up and could not believe how clear the sky was. When I saw Casseopia I followed those directions. It was so subtle that I wasn't sure what I was seeing at first. After a few seconds of staring, I confirmed it and let out a little squeal of delight. I got the feeling I was expecting and just wanted to thank you all again for all the help.
