Sunday, July 14th we were “On the Road Again”; destination
- Newington, CT for the Official Visit at Aisha Temple No. 83, Daughters of the
Nile. The ladies of Aisha showed their stuff and made us all feel very welcome
both at the Ceremonial and the banquet which followed at the Sphinx Shrine
Center.
We’re again experiencing difficulties with necessary electrical hookups
for the coach but are working through it. In order to run the roof air and
electrical appliances, the coach needs to be plugged into a 220 line. To all
the Queens/Recorders where we are scheduled to stay at a Shrine Center, Masonic
Center, etc. if the building is NOT equipped as above; please provide us with a
portable generator which produces a minimum of 30 amps and the fuel to keep the
generator running. Thank you for your assistance with this!
Monday, July 15th we headed to West Haven, CT and
were welcomed by Queen Suzie and Recorder Ruth. I wish I’d taken pictures of
the inside of the Masonic Hall where they met. It was like walking into the courtyard
of a castle. The walls were built with cement blocks, all the interior doors
were made of beautiful oak and the ceiling was painted sky-blue with floating clouds.
Absolutely beautiful!!
The banquet following the Ceremonial and hosted by the
ladies of Pyremus Temple No. 82 was held at a country setting restaurant and the
dining room looked out onto rock gardens.
Thank you Pyremus for your
hospitality! Nila and her occupants spent the night in Milford, CT before
heading out today for Newark, NJ.
