              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shugart
Afternoon showers and radar returns kept us closed until nearly the end of
first half. We attempted to open and get a few exposures for Becky, but
they were unusable for her science, due to patchy clouds and quick focus,
so I logged all this time to weather. The second half of the night went
well with clear skies, decent seeing, and no problems.
