November 1, 2011 - San Clemente

Since August, Jarett's grandparent's were moved to an assisted living care center, his grandpa had a hip replacement, and his grandparent's home has been prepared for sale. These have been major distractions from blogging. Sorry, for not staying current on this blog.

His emails have been short and he's sent less pictures. We're happy he's happy.

Jarett was in Oceanside 6 weeks. He loved it there and was surprised to be transferred. He sent some pictures, included here.

The first day he arrived in San Clemente, there was a bomb scare at the high school. Roads were blocked and people were panicky. The second day, there was a power outage for a huge portion of CA and parts of Arizona. They didn't have power for 12 hours. Burglar alarms went off randomly, and it was strange. The third day, they had a major rainstorm. Quite an introduction to San Clemente!

Both he and his companion, Elder Hart (from Colorado), were new to San Clemente. So, they've had to become acquainted with everything and everybody.
