Transcription Notes:
9/2 - Based on what I understand from instructions I believe this table only has 6 columns, not supposed to count columns if no heading and/or row entries, I think the '80 Days and 81 Days out' is common to the entire table so just didnt count as row entry and placed between headings and row transcription, made more sense to me to transcribe this way
