   Like last night, onight's plan was to check to see if the azimuth
control work during the day  improved pointing consistency, and take a
model if it had. Depending on the time of model completion and the weather
conditions, the imager or spectrograph cartridge would then be mounted.
   The weather prevented us from opening tonight.  Most of the night it was
cloudy, and it even rained on and off between 01:30 and 04:00.
   The plan for tomorrow is still to put the EC on and take pointing model
data in the evening twilight.  If there is a chance during the day to put
the EC on it would allow the model data to be taken earlier in twilight.
It is OK to put the corrector in with the EC as the pointing should not be
poor enough to need an index card to find the star.
