# Pretty good seeing all night. Moon was up for 2nd half of night. ObsTac did a couple SN fields, again with moon fairly close to the 20 degree limit, should be checked.

*Accomplishments*

# Mid-night standards, SDSSJ2300-0000, SDSSJ0200-0000
# SN-X3, SN-S1 (both close-ish to moon, should check), most of the night widefield z and i band, a few y band as well.
# GPS and Atmcam checked
# Morning standards: C26202/HST, SDSSJ0200-0000, SDSSJ0100-0000
