I have four or five of them on the go with emphasis upon large photos and hopefully, better writing. I still have the lung problems and that sometimes puts a damper on what I would prefer doing out of doors.<br /><br />I did enjoy reading your post about <br />Free Masons around the world. My neighbor was one until he passed away some years back. We talked a lot of world events, religion and things that happened to interest both of us. <br /><br />There was also a Dan Brown-like program on television recently related to the Templars and before that one about Free Masonary. I enjoyed them both though I liked the Templars best about their quest for the Holy Grail. <br /><br />I understood that it is in Ethiopia and they admit it is there but ordinary mortals are not permitted to see it.<br /><br />Thanks for helping me to make history. <a href="http://pickapeckofpixels.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><br />Pick a Peck of Pixels </a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198329362499789905.post-15058253360195430192009-09-24T18:43:17.934+02:002009-09-24T18:43:17.934+02:00Always glad to ameliorate my poor knowledge,from y...Always glad to ameliorate my poor knowledge,from your great work AND illustrations <br />and from the comments left by others too!<br />And you are right 1 hour wait is not much on that day, I've seen (but not wait...) 3 to 4 hours and may be more!!!Marie-Noyalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08929839775594103524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198329362499789905.post-19314612670152311112009-09-24T15:28:57.651+02:002009-09-24T15:28:57.651+02:00Never went in deep about them, so my knowledge is ...Never went in deep about them, so my knowledge is limited. :-)Nishahttp://cuckooscosmos.com/Travelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198329362499789905.post-66687561168949056692009-09-24T13:04:13.138+02:002009-09-24T13:04:13.138+02:00Skål!
