Oct. 25 2014 myself and 15 other Master Mason when thru the Fall Class of the   Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry.  I am now a  32° Scottish Rite Mason.  

The reason I joined the SR is that as a kid my mother raised four kids on what she made a South Central Bell.  Over the years, she had two supervisors that were very active in the SR and Shire.  Both of them helped to see the Mother got promoted and raises thru her hard work and service.  They were to of  the finest men I've ever meet.

I'm looking forward to being active in SR, esp. with the Annual Shoe Day.

 Yes , I am,  Brother.

I was also going to say that if you went through the Short Form then when you have the time I would highly recommend that you watch and or take part in the Long Form.

Memphis Valley is having their fall reunion right now. Started yesterday and will be over tonight. Have a ton of visitors from the Chicago Valley. I believe they are going to do the 31st degree. I think I heard there are 21 brothers going through this weekend, one of them came from Chicago and will be the candidate in the degree they do.
