The other evening, on MLK Day, My fraternal  brother, Adam Batchelder  and I took advantage of Him passing through  Athens on his way to Philly  to visit the good men at American Union #1  in 
Marietta Ohio.   We were well received and enjoyed the courtesy of brotherhood   extended to us by the newly installed officers and Worshipful Master.  Their newest Brother, Bro. Wilson returned his EA work in fine form. Afterward a dinner was enjoyed.
The lodge room was a merit to our  oldest lodge which provided a stair  case of 3,5, & 7 steps. There  is a nearby Historical Marker which  Reads: "The American Union Lodge  No. 1 Free & Accepted Masons" For  more information about this  wonderful lodge whose edifice and brethren  are a credit to the  Fraternity, 
check them out on their web page. Thank you Brethren for your fraternal hospitality!
 
  
   
 
Both of us look forward to seeing them again. As for myself, I plan to attend their stated in February to take in what I am sure will be an excellent Fellowcraft Degree. BTW, I am the good looking one on the right!
