Dec 22 - Nerissa graduates from Clemson

We traveled to Clemson University in SC  on Dec. 21 to attend Nerissa's convocation at 8 A.M.on Dec 22, 2011, for the nursing graduates.  It was held at Tillman auditorium in one of the older buildings.  It was very foggy when we arrived. The 38 nursing graduates walked across the stage and were "pinned".  It was such a nice program.  Mark presented Nerissa with a dozen red roses when the program was over.

We left the convocation and went to the Littlejohn Coliseum  where graduation was held at 2 P.M.  It was starting to rain and it was raining real hard when we came back outside.  We went to Pixie and Bill's restaurant for a late lunch.
