                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
 I started cooling the telescope at 18:45 but did not open due to clouds.
 The clouds departed (somewhat) around 21:40 and I opened shortly
 thereafter.
 The 2nd half observers decided to go with Grim to start the evening.  I
 switched back to SPIcam for them around 02:06 just as the clouds moved
 in.  We focused SPIcam but the clouds became too thick to do any useful
 science. I closed the telescope at 02:40 due to the possible threat of
 rain.
 We had a few sprinkle around 03:30 and gave up for the night around
 04:20.
