                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
 We started with clouds, a few sprinkles around 23:30 (nothing to write
 home about), then the winds started picking up.
 The wind died and dust dropped just as twilight started, we opened and
 Guy got some science on RS Oph.
