                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 Overcast skies kept us closed until about 0215. As soon as we got on the sky
 evidence of condensation on the ccd window was seen blocking most of the field
 of view. We pushed data collection as close to sunrise as we could to try to
 get narrowband flats.
