Observing Summary:

The night started partly cloudy, but cleared up after a couple
of hours, and seemed to be photometric therafter.  The seeing 
was very good at times.  There was only one obvious jump of
the telescope.  The ccd controller got stuck once; ultimately,
the Owl software had to be restarted.  Overall a very good night.
