              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
Clouds at the start of the night with virga seen coming off to the S and E.
We finally got on the sky a little after 02:00.  I found GIFS was disconnected from the hub and reconnected it.
Clouds came back in around 04:00 and we closed at 04:20.  We gave up at 04:55 under mostly cloudy skies.
