                               ACTIVITY LOG
(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
Due to poor weather, the telescope was not opened.  We had frequent
periods of light rain all night.
I was the scheduled observer for PU01 and Xiaohui Fan was the
scheduled observer for PU02.  Xiaohui waited patiently for the rain to
stop.
