                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 The first part of the night we were on the wrong side of a water vapor trough.
 Once this passed east of us around 2300 the skies cleared and remained
 photmetric the remainder of the night. Seeing was moderate to poor tonight.
