Observing Summary:

Really great night for observing, got a lot of data taken and did not 
encounter any major problems- weather was fairly clear all night, seeing
good. 

When finishing opening dropleaf, had message 'done interlocks estop=off 
floor=off pier=off tilt=off' but the bubbles beside these terms in the 
control panel itself were still green/activated. Also, after executing mirror
opening,  ERROR mirror mirror timeout  came up but the mirrors had 
opened; Reinitialized the MDM 1.3m control panel, tried the dropleaf 
command again to see if the same message came up & it didn't so 
proceeded with opening and data taking.

Nothing else the rest of the run.
