                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: W.Ketzeback
 Medium thick cloud cover and horrible seeing bothered the first half
 observer for much of first half. Skies cleared a few hours before
 midnight and seeing became moderate during second half.
 No problems.
