               -------------- Activity Log --------------
1st Half Observing Specialist: Karen Gloria
	The telescope was opened at 17:30 under partly cloudy skies.  The sky
was overcast late in the day, but this began to clear off by sunset.
	I was the observer for UW02, with Alan Diercks and Kevin Krisciunas
on standby in case I had problems or questions.  Everthing went
smoothly, although the seeing was 1.5 arcsec.
	Don York observed remotely for UC02.  No problems were encountered
during his run.
2nd Half Observing Specialist: N.C.Hastings
	Right at the start of UW11's run the power for the whole
Physics/Astronomy bldg in Seattle died on Paula. Luckily, John was
here to observe so no time was lost. We did not have any access to
UW's computers for most the night though which kept the guider monitor
and the cloud cam inoperable. Eric Deutsch stayed up most the night
working on it and restored them around 4am though...Thanks Eric.
