               ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialists: R.McMillan
 Frustrating night.  It started out nice and clear, so I set up to do
 some throughput when BD28 got high, and then clouds showed up out of
 nowhere (not on the satellite).  So I switched to fastcam for a few
 hours of windshake data, and found a problem with the weather
 logging (including windspeed).  While I was pondering that, the
 weather cleared -- so I switched back to DIS for throughput, and the
 clouds reappeared.  There were also some (spurious?) reports of
 lightning nearby.  I did some pickup science because it was easy
 enough for my fuzzy brain, and then I figured out the weather
 logging problem, but it was already too late for a proper fastcam
 dataset.  Fastcam will be the first priority tomorrow night.
