              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
I had to init nicfps while doing my focus sweep.  First test image was fine.  The second test image was corrupt (Black/White bar).
Clouds started moving in around 01:40 and basically stopped IR observations shortly after.
We called it a night at 04:50 due to clouds and possible precipitation heading our way.
