Trying to see "faint fuzzies" is cool. I'm still amazed even if I'm just taking the dog out in the dark to do his business at the fact that I can see the Milky Way from my property. But the planets and moon are still pretty breath taking through a telescope. Seeing the rings and bands of Saturn, and seeing Jupiter's bands and moons and the GRS are pretty amazing. I've once or twice managed to see the "canals" on Mars as well as the ice caps. And looking at the moon at 200x or 250x and feeling like you're practically there is crazy too.
