                 ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: W.Ketzeback
 Clouds all night. We opened for skyflats then closed due to nearby
 radar returns as soon as twilight ended. By 2230, I felt it was safe
 to open again. Clouds were a nusiance the rest of the night but we
 were able to stay open until 0500 when returns again appeared on
 local radar in the area.
