Happy Rock... a Yooper term of endearment for Gladstone



The Grand Master attended the Past Master / Awards Dinner this evening in Gladstone at 6 pm. I presented a couple 60 year membership certificates, A Life Membership (40 yrs) to Lloyd VanEss and the Mason of the Year to Frank Irons.  It was a nice evening of fellowship, great conversation and I gave a few remarks. There were many OES members present also, and the WM gave them flowers and a gift for one of the widows.  Gladstone Lodge will be working on forming a new Demolay Chapter this next year.  I'm looking for great things to be happening here in Happy Rock. Here are a few Murals from the walls of the Lodge.  The artist actually was local, and he used a fresco style of drawing them, then they were framed later. Worth the trip just to look at these.....
