              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist:    J. Huehnerhoff
Clouds at sunset moving quickly towards the east.  The weather was mostly
clear until a little before midnight when radar returns passed through.
This closed us for an hour, but the remainder of the night was clear.
Drives performed great tonight.
