Nice view of Jupiter and moons from balcony (15x70 celestron skymaster binolculars... heavy beast). Saturn is neaby too but too hard to get a good view due to shakiness and turbulence. I bet I’d see at least an elongated smear with a tripod, though not resolve rings.

*Really* tempted to buy a telescope. Haven’t owned one since high school. But new place has huge big sky view... lots of sky visible even with LA light pollution. Also just a mike from Griffith observatory so could always lug it up there.

High school scope was a 3.5” budget Newtonian. Now I’d probably shell out for a 6” Schmidt-Cassegrain at least.
