              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
Clouds kept us closed until 2nd half.  Clouds and radar returns caused us to close at 04:00.  Light rain around 05:00.
No problems tonight.
I did not take Echelle IOL in the morning since my observer was still taking cals with the instrument.
