   - Moved dome so that sunlight wasn't heating-up dome
   - Needed to reconnect data line for finder scope cam (ASI 2600)
+  - Took flat frames with sky at 1930, scope at zenith
+    - Unsure if 432 is north-aligned, OH WELL
+    - Forgot to record exposure times -- will do this before taking darks, obv
+  - Finderscope camera disconnected (using SC 4.1)
+    - Azzan and Sam went up to reseat the data cable into the Icron
+    - The 2600 worked again, but then disconnected after maybe 60s
+    - Azzan and Sam then moved the 2600 data  cable to LBD-2
+    - Seems to be working -- FOR NOW
+  - Moved to Pollux for pointing -- it was near zenith
+  - Dome tracking is working
+  - Pointing was off
+    - Got some starfield from the finderscope and uploaded to Astrometry.net (thanks to Connor for having an acct)
+    - Waited a few mins for astrometry.net to work
+    - Used the supplied RA and DEC to update the telescope position in DFM TCS
+  - Seems like focus might be off
+  - Went to HD 70272 to see if we can make things better
+    - Started at focus 1919.1
+    - Optimal focus is 1913.0
+    - FLATS ARE GARBAGE
+    - DELETING
+  - We Slew to HD 76351 the pointing seem to be off but we re-slew and it fixed the problem ( this is not expected)
+  - Started getting data for Dataredux study
+    - We started the autoguiding software phd2 (we re calibrate it)
+    - Source SA 101
+  - We took pretty pictures of different objects
+  - We did all the closing procedures (everything went smoothly)
+  - Took darks and flats next day after lecture ~1630-1730
+    - The sensor temperature seemed a bit too high for the darks, they'll be good for those flats, but we may want to retake darks for the SA 101 light frames

   - Need to get Azzan and Sam on Gold Card roof swipe access list
   - Need to finish set
