              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Evening started clear and calm with good seeing. Seeing degraded somewhat after midnight, but winds were calm and skies remained clear. Agile had a rotator error that was corrected within a few seconds via a re-init of the rotator. Other than that, a good night of observing. We were open all night.
