                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: Noel Camron Hastings
 Tonight started normally with cals on DIS first and then I opened about
 an hour before start time to cool. Focus went fine but the sky was quite
 cloudy. I ran into some Remark crashes similar to past crashes, Craig
 was notified and reverting to 2.80b solved the problem. Clouds soon
 became more than we could contend with and we stopped observing at
 22:25. I opened again at 01:00 for second half. The sky cleared for a
 bit but soon became so thick I again closed at 03:45. We opened again at
 04:35 MDT and got a few exposures before closing for the day....
