Traverse City 222.... to present a 70 year pin.

I'm packing the car for a trip to Traverse City today, where I had the honor and pleasure of presenting a 70 year pin at 6:00 pm to Ernie Beutler.  A fantastic meal of corn beef and cabbage was prepared by John, Dave and the kitchen crew, Craig was there, and sang a couple of songs dear to my heart.  Thanks Craig.  WM Mike presented me with an Honorary membership to Traverse City Lodge, and a very nice gift basket. These are the moments when you know masonry is working. I can tell from the activity of the Lodge, the excitement of the membership, and the kindness of the brothers that they are in the Masonic sweet spot. For those who have never been inspired by Traverse City Lodge, check out this video.
