              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Night started out iffy, then rain around 21:00-23:00.  Clear up, but we kept dodging humidity spikes.  OPened for a little over an hour and performed some of a pointing model around 01:00.  Humidity shut us down again at 2:30.  We remained closed.  Performed slit masks, and tested the mirror in echelle further.  We did not open after closing at 2:30.
