                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
 Clouds thickened during the later parts of the 1st half and my observer
 ran out of targets that were able to penetrate thru the clouds.
 NA2guider crashed hard at about 01:00.  Had to do a physical reboot of
 the camera to bring it back to life.
 Too cloudy for APOLLO tonight.
