              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shelden
Engineering night, very productive.  Seeing was around 1" all night.  Very low dust/smoke, very little wind.  Light fluffy clouds first half, which gave way to photometric skies second half.
Did a variety of tasks, engineering email sent separately.
I reopened one of the louver prs.  The lower one on the NA2 side still doesn't open, or shortly after closes itself again.  I operated them in auto tonight, as Joe and I discussed and agreed in the afternoon (based on Ed closing the prs).  If that is wrong and they still need to be in manual mode, please let me know.  Thanks!
