                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist, 1st & 2nd Shift: Russet McMillan
 We have had our token October snowfall, accompanied by fog, wind,
 clouds, power outages, and so forth.  I worked at training the first
 contingent of UM observers, doing bookkeeping, and taking image tests
 with SPIcam (which seems healthy again).
