Observer(s): Thorstensen & Zarate
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: modspec + echelle

Worked for 12 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable, cloud for 1/2 hr
   Mid: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate
   End: Seeing 1 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

Finally, a good night, and there was much rejoicing!  Humidity
threatened a few times, and there was one 1/2-hour cloudy 
interval early in the night, otherwise pretty good.  Brenda
Zarate and Sarah Tuttle both got plenty of on-sky practice 
with the setup.  Don't have a very good measure of the seeing
but it was mostly reasonable.
