When I was vacationing in Jamaica last year, I met a mason from England. We were both at the bar ordering a drink and he noticed my ring. We didn't really have much of a chance to talk as he was there for a wedding and was tied down with family affairs. We did get a chance to talk about where we both resided, and our lodge and how awesome Freemasonry is. After that every time he saw me, or we walked by each other on the resort he'd give me the "wink and the gun" and say"my brother." This was my first time meeting a brother from another jurisdiction without being in a lodge or traveling.
