                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
 Lots of clouds, of varying thickness.  We were open for all of first
 half, but there were some periods with nothing useful obtained even
 though the observers had already switched to a backup program with
 brighter targets.  Second half, there was time for some observations
 on one target before thick clouds closed in and I decided to close
 the dome.  The conditions and target fields for the spicam
 observations weren't right for me to look for a repeat of last
 night's cryptic image elongation.  I worked on observer training,
 TUI bug reports and the PI list for next quarter.

     used is north=0 degrees, east=90 degrees.  The dust count is
     particles > 1u per 0.1 cubic feet.
