              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
The day started out promising, but soon turned bad right before sunset.  Once again, we were trapped in a cloud with only the occasional suckerhole.  Fog and high humidity kept us closed all night.  The dome was rotated 90 degrees every few hours in the hopes that the wind would take care of the remaining snow on the roof of the dome.  Have to make room for the snow coming this weekend, after all!  Dome was left parked at (10,0) at the end of the night.
