53 N. Main St. Boscawen, New Hampshire meets on the third Thursday of each month (except July and August) at the Masonic Temple in Boscawen, NH In Progress as July 28, 2010 The Road Ahead... They say life is journey, and that journey is about living life to its full potential, becoming the best person you can, and finding happiness in the places and people you meet along the way. In my life I have traveled and met many interesting people. The one who gave me life's most important lesson plan, and whom I admire most is my father. He taught me to always strive to be a little better man every day. He often told me "Nothing changes unless you do!" I have lived by that principal all my adult life, sometimes with more success than others. When you meet as many people as I do you are bound to meet a very large sample of the good, bad, and in between. Over the years you notice things...the people who I have met that personified the notion that becoming a better man is a lifetime pursuit, all had one thing in common, they wore the ring of a Master Mason! Several years ago my father's sage advice gave me pause to think...if my goal was to become a better man, then I needed to try and find people who shared that same goal. Like many things that are plainly in sight I simply failed to see what was right in front of me. I met a gentleman in Concord who was a member of the Concord Chamber, a Rotarian, and a business owner who I enjoyed discussing any number of subjects with and who coincidentally wore the ring. I saw it and asked him about being a Mason, I asked him how one could join and even though he gave me the answers that I needed, and I still procrastinated. Thank god for this Blog! Timing is everything; I am at a point in life where I have the time to commit to an organization and the desire to be a better man. I saw a post on this Blog and asked the question, how can I become a Mason? I will forever be grateful to Ed Lewis of Horace Chase for helping me get started. In May I became an Entered Apprentice. It was a moving and powerful experience. I have learned some things about myself and about the journey, which have given me greater purpose. I have met some incredible people, who are all helping me to make the next step in Masonry. The lesson is challenging, frustrating, rewarding and exciting. No man becomes a Mason alone, since being made a Mason I have learned that brothers will always make themselves available to help you, and you will be amazed at the number of people you know that wear the ring. As I go through the lessons I will report back from time to time to share my thoughts and experiences. Perhaps it might inspire someone else to ask how they too can become a Mason!

![]() In this stunning follow-up to the global phenomenon The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown demonstrates once again why he is the world's most popular thriller writer. The Lost Symbol is a masterstroke of storytelling--a deadly race through a real-world labyrinth of codes, secrets, and unseen truths... all under the watchful eye of Brown's most terrifying villain to date. Set within the hidden chambers, tunnels, and temples of Washington, D.C., The Lost Symbol accelerates through a startling landscape toward an unthinkable finale. As the story opens, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned unexpectedly to deliver an evening lecture in the U.S. Capitol Building. Within minutes of his arrival, however, the night takes a bizarre turn. A disturbing object--artfully encoded with five symbols--is discovered in the Capitol Building. Langdon recognizes the object as an ancient invitation... one meant to usher its recipient into a long-lost world of esoteric wisdom. When Langdon's beloved mentor, Peter Solomon--a prominent Mason and philanthropist--is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realizes his only hope of saving Peter is to accept this mystical invitation and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon is instantly plunged into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and never-before-seen locations--all of which seem to be dragging him toward a single, inconceivable truth. As the world discovered in The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, Dan Brown's novels are brilliant tapestries of veiled histories, arcane symbols, and enigmatic codes. In this new novel, he again challenges readers with an intelligent, lightning-paced story that offers surprises at every turn. The Lost Symbol is exactly what Brown's fans have been waiting for... his most thrilling novel yet.

Freemasonry has existed in New Hampshire since 1735, and many of the leading citizens of our state have been Freemasons. Being a member of the oldest and largest fraternal order in the world is a rewarding and educational experience. Our charitable activities are many and varied: the Shriners' Hospitals for Children, support of medical research, scholarships, programs for child identification and combating drug abuse, the Scottish Rite Learning Centers, and quiet, local charity. Freemasons are committed to helping those who are less fortunate, and in the process we are building a better and safer world. The Masonic Lodge, otherwise known as "Blue Lodge", is the center of activity from which all other Masonic organizations spring. Without Blue Lodge, there would be no Shrine, Scottish or York Rite, Eastern Star, Rainbow or DeMolay to advance their noble and charitable causes. The single highest Masonic authority within the state of New Hampshire is the Grand Lodge of New Hampshire. For an overview of the History of Freemasonry, visit this web site click
