 +  - Showed Sam, Jordan, and Vianne dome startup procedures 
 +  - Replaced old clevis pin on North mirror door with new one 
 +    - Noticed South and East mirror door pins were nearly coming out 
 +  - Took Sky Flats (realized mirror doors were still closed) 
 +    - Restarted, only got U flats from sky 
 +    - Plan to take sheet flats at end of night 
 +  - Struggled to point 
 +    - Slewed to Jupiter, Polaris, and Sirius 
 +    - Eyeballed from dome to find Sirius 
 +  - Took Magnitude frames 
 +  - Took Seeing Data 
 +  - Took Tracking Data 
 +  - Jordan got NAS set up (yay!) 
 +  - Found Tiger's Eye Nebula (NGC 2841) and took pretty frames 
 +  - Took Flats in BVR (Not enough I to get flats in a reasonable time) 
 +  - Shut Down Procedures 
 +    - TheSky6 zenith did not translate to actual zenith 
 +    - Slewing to zenith in DFMTCS DID agree with where zenith is 
 +    - Slewed to zenith using DFMTCS, TheSky6 shows scope pointing slightly west
