Congratulations, Dan! I will be doing the same when the weather
gods cooperate and the transits are more suitably timed for
the Southwestern US.  You do know about the all-sky calibration
that I have done for this field?  This is a good one to experiment
with ensemble differential photometry if you want the utmost precision.
That is one of the nice things about CCD photometry: you can go back
at any time and process/analyze the images differently.
