Dave Riendeau, myself and our wives trekked up to Manitoulin Island to Gore Bay Lodge 472 for Dave's being raised to the Sublime degree of a Master Mason. Dave, who is originally from the Island, has family there and it was his Brother in Law W Bro Aaron Wright, who sat in the East for this occasion along with a lodge of Past Masters.
We were treated like royalty while there and the Brethren went above and beyond, making us feel welcomed.
That evening we went to their Ladies Night/Mothers Day celebration and had a great time.
Thank you to all the Brethren and their Ladies but in particular Aaron and Apryl.

Thursday night we held our 3rd District meeting and it went pretty well. The meeting opened sharp at 7:30 pm. The Committee Chairs gave their final reports and I gave my summary of the year. W Bro Ron Taylor presented me with a finished collage of the masters of the year as well as a collage of the District Chairmen.

As expected, the installation at Edinburgh was conducted with crisp military precision as one would expect from this Lodge. Shane Livingstone, the out-going Master served as Michel Ashman's Installing Master. W Bro Ashman's Father and Brother made the journey from Woodstock Ontario for his installation and were very proud to have been there.
