Observing Summary:

A beautiful night - too bad its my first. Did standards, one target.  Hand guided,
inevitably lack of observer finesse was the problem - I'll check with Bob in the 
morning. 2nd half of night - food poisoning? Better now.  I didn't keep the 
telescope open since I couldn't guide (and was otherwise occupied).
