Institution(s): Columbia

Instrument: Modspec+Nellie

No Observing (see comments below)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   High Humidity all night.

Observing Summary:

There was high humidity for most of the night 
(icy particles midway through the night).  
The humidity dropped below 85% around 4:30am, at which time 
I opened up and tried to slew to a bright star but both the focus 
and pointing were off.  I manually reset the RA/Dec encoders after 
adjusting the tilt meters but the pointing (bright star acquisition) 
was not successful.
