              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Day started out partly cloudy and hazey from smoke. We were able to open at sunset. Seeing was not very good, as winds were from the east. It cleared out around 22:00 and seeing improved around 23:30. After change over the NA2 rotator did not move. A "tcc axis init rot" fixed it. Weather stayed calm the rest of the night. We were open all night.
