              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
A peaceful night, mostly clear with good to moderate seeing, all
instruments and telescope worked well.  The smoke levels varied from
imperceptible to a level we would have considered bad a week ago, but in
comparison with the previous few nights tonight's peak smoke was
moderate.
