              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
Usual pattern of threatening weather in the evening, then a chance to open second half.  We adjust collimation (both the primary and secondary mirrors), and got an initial pointing model.  More collimation and pointing refinement can be done as the telescope gets closer to equilibrium.
