                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 1st Half Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 Much warmer weather tonight. First half went by smoothly. Some heavy cirrus
 with moderate seeing.
 2nd Half Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
 Second half had persistent thin cirrus and good seeing, getting down
 to 0.8 arcseconds on the guider.  Everything worked perfectly, a
 welcome relief after the worries of the last few nights.
