A pier has been a godsend. It shortens the setup time to about five minutes as opposed to 30, since alignment is also not needed unless the goto is off but that has not happened as of yet, just uncover, then wake the mount from its hibernation and off it goes.

I can't decide on a permanent enough place to do that.
