                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 Clouds, clouds and more clouds. We were able to open for a sucker hole for
 about 30 minutes. Only time to focus and start and exposure before it had to
 be aborted due to cloudcover. We never reopened.
 I worked on a programming project tonight.
