Good evening, from Tennessee

Sorry for just getting around to reply. I was raised last Monday, April 24th. I won't go into any details because of my obligation, but that part I'm sure a lot of you know what I'm talking about. WOW. It was a great event with many in attendance, and I was deeply humbled again at all the hard work that the brothers put in for not only my MM, but all three as well.

I was very fortunate to be able to attend a MM degree this previous Saturday in Denmark, TN. The degree was held in a church that has some really interesting Civil War and Masonic History. If I'm remembering correctly, it was the first degree held there since 1891. There was a HUGE turnout, and although it was very hot upstairs in the lodge room with fans going, I was able to soak in even more of the MM degree.

Here is a page talking about the building: http://bigblackcreekhistorical.com/17denmark_presbyterian_church_and_masonic_lodge__154

Brother, I don't know how I missed this thread. I was at Denmark for the degree. Was extremely hot upstairs. I'm over in Henry Co. Paris.

Well then, I'm sure I saw you at some point, then! I am still overwhelmed by all the work and help being put it at all times by brothers from around this area. I would definitely like to attend a degree there again, as long as it's during the fall or even winter. I read talk on the West TN Facebook page of a brother wanting to charter a lodge there (if I'm using the correct words there).

I'm also on that facebook page. Brother Tim from Milam among others are trying to get a chartered lodge active there again.

He seems like a good guy. I sat in the Milan Lodge to view an EA he conferred while I was just a few day's old EA myself.
