Observing Summary:

Everything went smoothly.  Observed CR Bootes for Joe Patterson
and the Tres-3b transit.  Nasty cirrus at the beginning of the 
night, and heavier clouds later, through which we somehow 
managed to keep guiding during the transit.  Cleared up at the
end.  Bad seeing in the middle and at the end of the night was 
intentional.
