Problems:
The dome failed to work at the beginning of the night. I think the error was that the encoders could not be read; anyway the result was that we could not rotate the dome. This was resolved after a little over an hour.
A minor, unrelated issue: it appears that Image 300398 was not delivered, though it was built and saved locally.

Although this form will not allow me to submit a seeing value larger than 3 arcsec, the seeing was in fact worse than this for much of the night, ranging from 3.5 to 4.5 arcsec. It was considerably better, about 1.5-2 arcsec, in the last hour of the night.
