Bang!

Saturday begins at the airport - going to Washington DC for the annual Supreme Council meeting.This is a great week of non-stop social events. This is the time and place for the Coronation  of the new thirty-third degree Masons, that will happen in a magnificent ceremony on Tuesday. A point of reference, less than two percent of Masons ever get elected to receive the thirty-third degree.Beside that it is also the two hundred year celebration (how cool is that?) Checked into the fabulous JW Marriott.

Room with a view of Pennsylvania Avenue. The Hotel is about two blocks for the White House

 


Saturday Night is the Commander's Dinner. We heard a great set of remarks and a huge reminder of how Masons help Masons. When Hurricane Sandy made a left turn into land instead of a right turn to go into the Atlantic havoc ensued. Many peoples lives changed forever. Scottish Rite Masons were on the ground providing assistance to members who were in dire need. We were able to make a difference in lives all along the seaboard.
