              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shelden
Mirror covers and eyelids cannot be commanded through TUI.  Operated manually tonight.  I'm not sure if the lower louvers are closed or not, but I was able to turn the fans off.  Fritz was emailed.
Night was entirely cloudy.  First half was partly cloudy, second half became very cloudy.
2nd half UC04 observers:  Mark Hammergren, Mike Solontoi, Geza Gyuk
