Jeff Bayer PM and I read thru a document written by Dwight L. Smith, a Past Grand Master of Indiana called "Wither Are We Traveling". As we read through Part 1 we share our opinions about what Brother Smiths thoughts and if they even apply to our day and age.

Tell us what you think and let's keep the conversation going.

Jeff Bayer and I delve into some Grand Lodge of California history and learn some history. Some of it we believe was romanticized a bit and some of it was left for the reader to decipher.

We a four-book series called One Hundred Years of Freemasonry in California. This book set came out in 1950 celebrating the one hundredth anniversary.

As Bayer and I finish reading the chapter called "Organization of Grand Lodge" we share our insights, comments, and opinions on the matter.

Join us as we ask questions and learn more.

This interview has been long overdue. Brother Jason E. Reichenberg from Texas reached out to me on January 17th, 2024.

Brother Reichenberg is the Senior Warden of Victory Lodge in Texas and if all goes well will sit in the east next year.

What he said was that he had lost 55 pounds and that he attributed it the Freemasonry.

Life happens, you get a new job, you get married, you begin to focus on making more money, and the next thing you know you're 60lb. overweight.

How do you get the weight off and keep it off, especially after 40?

Jeff Bayer and I delve into the Origins of the Grand Lodge of California.

We begin to explore the Who, what, where, why, and how of the Grand Lodge of California.

What did we find?

Is it what we thought?

Are there some mysteries left to be discovered?

Let us find out together.

Our Lodge's Charter is still suspended, I will talk about my new exercise routine and why I have adopted it. Then, I get back into the exploration of the origins of masonry.

What are the origins of masonry and why do we not focus on this more?

Rain Man still has more questions, but he wants to talk about Shangri-La and Old Masonry.

Rain Man and I have a conversation after eating some homemade Mexican Chili Beans.

We cover many topics from Prince Hall Masonry, Illuminati, Observance, high standards, degrees, Moose Lodge, Elks, Rotary, Grand Lodge Leadership Retreats, and much more.

Why was the Grand Lodge of California created?

Rain Man does what Rain Man does. He describes an appendant body pulling a midnight move on us and they get caught.

What else do we talk about?

We as Masons are told to adopt a prudent and well-regulated course of discipline in all we do so that we can show honor to God by honing our talents and using them for the greater glory of ourselves and God.

Texas Grand Lodge Communication has come and gone they still have a lot of work to do.

I read a few paragraphs from a book called " The Beer Option" by R. Jared Stuart.

Many Masons love their beer, and you can't deny it. Raise a toast to all the Brothers across the world. HERE'S TO YOU BROTHERS!
