              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Evening started out partly cloudy, with thunderstorms nearby, but not headed toward us (it looked like it turned toward us at the last minute, but then disapated).  Rain kept threatening us from the north, but never came down. Seeing was not very good, but we were able to stay open until dawn.
2nd half observer had internet connection problems (on their end) but failed to notify us (phone obs spec) of the problems.  The phone number in the proposal was also in error, so we had no way of contacting the observer either.  Time was reported as not used.  The first half program used the time until the 2nd half observer finally logged in.  - RM
