Tonight is our regular stated meeting and I am now getting the ingredients together for the dinner I wonder how much your lodge spends on dinner for the meal and what do you typically have for dinner we like to make it special and we spend 50 to 70 dollars on supplies for the meal each meeting...
Memorization is great in itself. However like others said before, it doesn't make you a better mason. In my experience sometimes the guy who has all the lines has just that a bunch of lines. Definitely not in every or most cases, but a few. Anyway its the inward man that makes the difference.

Okay. So are you saying that the Star was physically seen in the Eastern Sky? Like they looked up and saw it there and moved closer to it? Traveling East? Because they were looking from the west?
