              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist:    J. Huehnerhoff
Moderate seeing at start of night.  Some pollen in the air but well below
closure limit.
After start of second half seeing quickly worsened to 2.5"-3".  Seeing was
poor the remainder of the night.
No problems with TUI 1.7.4b1, guiding on DIS had no problems.
