Details (All times UT):
----------------------------------
01:00 - Logging in and setting things up.
	Seeing is looking pretty bad for the
	night, so the plan is to use MODS.

01:30 - Planning to start with PS18kh once
	it gets dark. Seeing FWHM is around 2".

02:25 - Starting PS18kh science observation,
	seeing is around 1.9". Source is
	noticeably weaker in MODS2 images.

03:30 - Wrapping up PS18kh, and moving on to
	get standard star G191B2B.

04:05 - Moving on to target SBS0940+544.
	Having a hard time acquiring the guide
	star, even after manually updating the
	acq script to pick a new guide star
	not near the edge.

04:25 - Moving instead to J0837 since it has a
	brighter guide star that is not near the
	detector edge.

04:40 - Couldn't get that one either, likely due
	to the 4.7(!) arcsecond seeing. We are
	now closing due to wind.

06:30 - Back open, trying to get ASASSN18zj if
	seeing and wind permit.

07:30 - Seems to be succesfully getting science
	data. Seeing is still awful (5" per the
	DIMM), so added an additional 10 min
	to the science exposure length.

08:10 - Have again lost guiding, so note that
	the last image taken may not be viable
	as the target will have shifted somewhat.
	Now going to try J1246+18 with an extra
	exposure to compensate for the poor
	seeing.

08:30 - That target also lost guiding, so Josh
	is trying to troubleshoot an apparent
	software issue with the azimuth control.
	Currently the telescope cannot (or will
	not) move in azimuth.

09:00 - Issue has been resolved, now trying to
	focus/collimate again and get back to
	J1246+18.

09:25 - Starting J1246+18 science observations.
	Mirror panicked on MODS1, so we got 2
	out of 3 images on each side.

10:00 - Tried to go back to J1246+18, but still
	seem to be having issues with the
	problematic actuator. Had to abort and
	move to zenith to attempt to fix it.

10:30 - Back on sky, but J1246+18 is now low so
	we're going to try to get ASASSN20bs.
	Having some difficulties getting the
	preset to send, though. Apparently this
	was because the TCS disconnected from
	MODS2 somehow.

10:50 - Struggled to get on target and quickly
	lost the guide star. Now forced to do
	another round of collimation.

11:15 - Finally got that sorted out, so going to
	try ASASSN20bs again.

11:35 - Starting ASASSN20bs science exposures.
	Seeing is reasonable, around 1.2".

12:15 - Moving to get standard Hz44.

12:35 - Done with standard. Closing up shop as
	it's now passed twilight.
