Observing Summary:

In the kitchen a mouse approached me.  When I looked at it,
it would run away. This happened three times. Then a minute
later I heard a loud bang from the machine shop.

Observing began well, with clear air and significantly improved
seeing. Closed at 9:33pm when blowing dust came up.  Opened
again at 1:10am when it became clearer.
