              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
Night was cloudy, and had a little bit of time where the sky was clear.  Seeing was good despite this.  We did have a period of time around 1am where the clouds were too thick for their targets, and we weren't taking data.  However the telescope stayed open the whole night.
No other problems to report.
