              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist:    J.Huehnerhoff
Daylight savings time ended this morning;  the scheduled time reflects
this change.
Good seeing at the start of night turning variable after 2200MDT.  Many
instrument changes tonight but all instruments performed well.  Was able
to get agile collimation check data at end of the night.
