                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 1st Half Observing Specialist: J. Dembicky
 J.Barentine helped during checkoout tonight.  It was cloudy with rain, so
 we did not start the cooling fans/open louvers.
 2nd Half Observing Specialist: W. Ketzeback
 The sky was cloudy and humidity was above the limit at the beginning of the
 second half. These conditions remained the remainder of the night.
