Agreed on that account..... Shriners Rock! Me - at the hukilau taking the elevator up to someone's room. I am wearing my lavalava, aloha shirt, blue FOM Fez, holding a cocktail in one hand and my wife (also wearing FOM Fez) with the other. Him - older gentleman escorting two younger ladies (probably wife and daughter). He has a ring on his finger, a Mason's ring. He has either been a Mason/Shriner for a very long time, or is very highly-ranked because this ring was HUGE! He looked me over top to bottom, asked about my Fez. I told him FOM. He kinda looked puzzled for a minute so I offered that we are a new group, only three years old. He asked if we were serious. I said yes. He asked if we had a worthy charity. I said we think so. He smiled and said Have fun, I hope our paths cross again. Qualified as both the strangest and coolest moment of this years Hukilau. |
