                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 1st Half Observing Specialist: Noel Camron Hastings
 2nd Half Observing Specialist: Russet McMillan
 Thick clouds kept the telescope closed during first half.  Even after
 most of the line of clouds had passed by us on the satellite image,
 some orographic effects remained.  At last, the sky cleared shortly
 before 02:00 and we were able to open.  Seeing was moderate at first
 (1.2 arcsec) and poor later (2 arcsec), with some dependence on
 position relative to the wind.
 Once we opened, observations went perfectly smoothly.

   used is north=0 degrees, east=90 degrees.  The dust count is particles
   > 1u per 0.1 cubic feet.
