                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: W.Ketzeback
 Cloudy during twilight then it cleared for a few hours before we closed
 for cloud cover and light rain shower. Were open until 0500 when the clouds
 just became too thick. The observers decided to throw in the towel for the
 last hour. It was a good choice, it never cleared and the humidity hung
 around the clousure limit after I closed.
