              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
ARCTIC observers-- J.Huehnerhoff, B.Ketzeback, C.Doughty
We had heavy clouds and rain for most of the night.  They cleared out enough for us to get on sky with ARCTIC at the very end of the night.
We took some test images, and then took an instrument block grid.  I ran into some problems when trying to reduce it while they continued testing.  Since it was close to sunrise, Joe said not to worry about it.  My file is in /Users/Shared/GridsandRings/arctic150629.txt.  I will fix it, and run it tomorrow. After this, we closed for the night.
