Yea, it can be a lot to take in all at once. But you will have plenty of time when it is all done to reflect back on it. If you have the opportunity to do so, you ought to jump on the chance to get part of the Master Craftsman program. It is really neat and you get to learn a lot from it. I am in the middle of it, and I do have to say that it is very well worth the $35 or so bucks that I paid for it. I really do get all excited when I get to my Post Office box when I am expecting my new test to come in. I am sure that you will enjoy it as much too.
Well, you should shoot a private message to me on here if you and we can exchange email addresses and phone numbers. That way, this Saturday we can make sure to meet during a break or something and be able to shake hands and I can welcome you personally to the Scottish Rite. Hope to hear from you soon, brother.
