Problem(s) Encountered:

When I went to close at the end, the command

tx dropleaf close

elicited

error dropleaf slit busy

even after I did a telescope stop/telescope start and refreshed the GUI. I ended up closing the dome by going down to the 1.3m, switching slit control to local, and pushing the buttons.  

Solutions:

This is an acceptable way to work around this issue.  On the next morning, I found no issues in GUI-based commands being issued to the dome.
