              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
We conclude this week's series with our final episode of It Was a Dark and Stormy Night. In tonights episode, the rain came late in the afternoon, bringing a ray of hope that we might yet see the starry sky but. Alas, hopes were soon dashed upon the ground as the wall of weather descended upon us from the west, delivery heavy blows of rain, lightning, and thunder. We sat, the moths and I, hunkered in the dark...waiting for a clear sky that would never come...
No problems tonight.
