Notes:
Clouds early in the night with domes closed until 7 MST. 

Used WTTM on SNhunt263. I kept forgetting to enable WTTM on my GUI. At the beginning of the night it was too cloudy for WTTM.

Renamed PSNJ09084248+4448132 as SNhunt263.

Around 3:00 MST the telescope drives tripped off. The supports were not functioning properly when everything came back online. Then WIYN2 computer froze. All of these problems were dealt with and cost around 50 minutes. 

Took 569 images.
