              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
We had a gorgeous night!  No cloud, humidity, wind, rain, dust, moths, or otherwise unwanted issues.  Well, except for ARCSAT.  It kept me busy the first half of the night with problems and then grew frost on its CCD :/
No problems tonight, not even DIS's red ion pump!
