                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 First half was a mix of light rain and snow flurries with an occasional
 thunder and lightning show thrown in for good measure. The skies parted
 for an hour a midnight. Just enough time to open, chase focus, get one
 standard and then clouded out again before on a science target. Humidity
 stayed above the limit the rest of first half.
