On Saturday, May 30th South Haven held a Master Mason degree. There were 15 visitors helping us raise Ron, and the practice and planning really paid off.
We were not letter perfect. Not everyone knew their lines without the book. But thanks to help from Coloma, Lakeshore, Kalamazoo and other lodges we had plenty of people and an extremely successful degree.
I wish we could put on a degree like this with our own lodge, but the fact is we can't. And I wish I could have reciprocated by going to the Kalamazoo Lodge's all degree day yesterday, June 6th, but we gave our grandchildren (1 and 2) a combination birthday party yesterday.
My wife and I spent hours the night before preparing the breakfast and lunch. Even though it was "just" cold-cuts, there was a lot of preparation. I had help from one brother cleaning up afterward.
If I'm in town, and can possibly make it, I will do anything I can to help my brother lodges. The turnout was wonderful.
