              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
It started snowing about 17:30.  I started the snow program at 18:30.
We never opened and I stopped the snow program and bugged out of here about 02:30, with snow appearing on radar to be on the way.
I left the telescope parked at 104,75 and all stop buttons out except for the control room.
We have about 1/4" of snow on the ground outside as of 02:30 but a big mass of moisture is heading our way down by El Paso.
