   Clouds from 4:00 until 5:00.

   Mid: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

The night started with a few high clouds, then became clear, and
then at about 4:00 am thicker clouds rolled in. We observed NGC
4395 all night. 

The focus continued to change a little and we managed it with the
hand paddle. It slipped in both directions, with no obvious 
reason (after we pointed to NGC 4395, we did not move targets 
until close). The magnitude of the change was smaller this 
evening, with about 10 units/40 min.
