              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shugart
Some clouds came in during UW11, and we lost a really bright star. It took
20 minutes to recover it on the slitviewer again, so this time was lost to
weather, even though we remained open. Got back on sky at 23:32, and
stayed there.
Before UC01 began, Russet logged in and helped with a quick collimation
check. This took ~5 minutes, so I logged it to equipment time, though
there was no failure. Everything seemed okay. Don had some trouble with
coordinates and guiding at first, but no big issue. He fixed the
coordinates, and we had no more problems.
Don said he would turn off the lamps, so I went to bed after fills.
