                               ACTIVITY LOG
(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
1st half observing specialist: Camron Hastings
2nd half observing specialist: Karen Gloria
The telescope was opened at 18:20 MST and closed due to clouds at
18:50 MST.  Just long enough to take a focus frame.  The sky cleared
after 01:00 MST, but humidity remained just a little too high to open.
The observers were Scott Austin (WS02) and Rhodri Evans (UC06).
