Telescope recommendations for a hobbyist?

Hey all,

I'm hopefully about to buy a house that is just down the road from our local observatory. I'd like to take advantage of the nights sky and so I'm thinking about saving up for a decent telescope. It would be great if was something I could attach my DLSR Cannon camera to for astro photography but that isn't necessary.

Having never ventured into the hobby before what are the features I should look for and are there any companion apps or reading I should look at so I could know where to find specific planets or stars?

I would love to hear your recommendations on where to start looking and how much I should save up. I'm not an academic or anything like that so probably don't need the highest end equipment but I'd like to have somehting i can enjoy using for my whole lifetime.

The more I dive into the paranormal and strange the more convinced I am that this is all some type of illusion/simulation. I know there's some discussion of synchronicities every other week here, but I figured it was about time I took my turn, so I wanted to share a few recent experiences I've had that I just can't get out of my head.

So, a few years ago, I got really into western ceremonial magick, about 6 months after I started seriously learning about it and trying out some practices I moved, Coincidentally My neighbor was a serious practitioner.

A couple years later I was getting more into Shamanic practices and drum meditation. coincidentally a few months later I got a new coworker who was a shamanic practitioner and went regularly to drum circle events.

More recently, After a lot of searching I wanted to get back into Buddhism (I've explored a lot of traditions in my life and hadn't spent much time with Buddhism since my teenage years) A Theravada Monk moved into the apartment next door. (I've really settled into Buddhism, and it has stuck as a regular practice in my life)

Basically, for the last 10 years (and maybe my whole life if I think back to my youth) the universe seems to send me the teacher I need as soon as I've shown real honest interest. It's just too crazy to ignore. Lots of small things happen too like a random historical figure I'm interested in is suddenly being talked about more in pop culture, but these teacher appearances are just too crazy to ignore. Any others have experiences like this?
