              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
The night started clear and beautiful, but second half brought horrible seeing and high humidity. It stayed high for the rest of the night.  Towards morning it started looking promising, and we ended up opening at the very last second before their science cutoff.
