                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: W. Ketzeback
 The skies clouded up at sunset and remained that way until shortly before
 midnight. We opened, focused and got a small amount of data before the
 clouds returned and I closed again at 0210. It started to rain at 0330 and
 continued as a light rain until after 0400. The clouds did not break by the
 time that the Lens monitoring program was to start so I gave up myself and
 did my checkout.
