                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: Camron Hastings
    We remained closed all night due to clouds and rain. I did
exercise the telescope a bit with the shutters closed since it has sat
dormant for quite a few days. The rain sensor continues to perform
wonderfully. We had power fluctuations during first half, but there
was no loss of utility power.
