                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist, 1st Shift: Camron Hastings
      I opened at 19:55 for cooling. All systems working well. I took
test images with all instruments scheduled. The first observer took some
change time to get a target with no interference to the next observer.
Observing Specialist, 2nd Shift: Russet McMillan
Clouds moved in and the dome was closed at 23:40.  The rest of the
night was cloudy with some rain.
