                 ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
 Cloudy skies for the first half of the night with the clouds breaking up
 around 23:00, but lots more to our West and reforming to our East so I
 held off on opening.  It was still mostly cloudy, but we did have several
 sucker holes passing over.  Clouds pretty much covered us by 00:30.
 It started sprinkling around 02:00 and we gave up at 03:45 due to rain.
