Observer Support: 
Manuel Hernandez
Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Also Present: 
David James
Problems: 

No major problems.

Comments: 

No major problems.

Minor problems:

1) Lost 20 min to decbot crashing and no one noticing

2) Results for image center computed using the  center command in kenttools is now different from that computed by decstat and copilot. These used to all be the same. Has something changed?

3) Seeing was poor. We were pointed pretty far north for much of the night, but even when we were at dec~0, the seeing was poor. Such is life.
