Graduation Day 2

Day 2 of Graduation was supposed to be a beautiful Parade and ceremony. Both days were very early. We got there about 6am for seats and parking. The ceremonies started at 9:00. On this day, shortly after the flights started entering the field, a very strong smell of natural gas came over the field. Within minutes they cancelled the ceremony and evacuated everyone. Military base, potential for chemical attack....it turned out to be a leak of the chemical that is put into natural gas to give it a smell. Supposed to be non-toxic. Don't know where the leak was from. Needless to say we were all terribly disappointed. They all worked so hard and then didn't get the chance to show what they had learned. Jacob took it in stride though. We were so thankful that we had 3 days to spend with him. We ate a lot, listened to many stories from training, met and spent some time wit his best friends. Met Cassie's parents and generally just enjoyed being together.もっと詳しく
