                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 High level clouds all night with waves of thick cloud cover much of first
 half. I estimate that about an hour was lost first half waiting for the
 skies to thin enough to continue observations. Seeing was moderate.
 No other problems tonight.
