Well, the first bit of news is that I noticed that the Grand Lodge of Oregon has a new web site. It's a great improvement over the old site, but the abundance of animated gifs and JavaScript grates on me. Still, I urge folks to check it out!

I found a list of interesting books offered by the Southern California Research Lodge. If any passing Masons have recommendations for good Masonic reading material, I'd be happy to hear it. Please send me e-mail!

Before heading home for the day, I thought I'd share one more important link I've found. I've been concerned about what my friends and family might think about Freemasonry and my decision to become a member. I came across a page which attempts to answer Difficult Questions about Freemasonry. Please check it out!
