              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
Rain. LOTS!  Fog. Thick! Proposals! Too many too read.
In short, nothing happened and we didn't open all night, but there also
weren't any problems, so that's good.
-----
Though the night should have been short given the weather, it was awfully
long given other works and summed up well in this little celtic song (I
couldn't find the lyrics online but please enjoy a video!)
