Observing Summary:

We had a great night.  We did a final focus of proto chas and are happy with our spectra.  We looked at several different galaxies.  We did have a slight problem getting the padlock open- we all tried and finally David was able to open it.  Not sure if this has happened before but just a heads up.   No rotator issues and the new filters worked well.
