From Clara: Beautiful night at CTIO with clear skies, humidity below 40%, low winds, and average DIMM seeing of ~0.7 arcsec.  Besides several satellite trails in our images, all has been fantastic as always with Blanco/DECam and its wonderful staff.  Missing you all!  I hope everyone is sound and safe. My best wishes to everybody. Happy summer solstice and happy holidays!
