World of Coca-Cola

On Friday, we flew to Atlanta, Georgia. Yesterday, we met members of several Georgia assemblies, including that of the Grand Rep to Oregon and the Grand Associate, in Marietta for bowling.
Today we drove into Atlanta and went to the World of Coca-Cola. It was kind of cool, but fairly expensive for what was essentially a two-hour long commercial to Coke products, although I enjoyed learning some of the history of the company.
We went with Georgia's Grand Associate and her mom. The kids enjoyed sampling coke products from around the world.
In the afternoon we attended a Rainbow installation in an old Lodge in Hiram, which is about 30 miles west of Atlanta. 
The Grand Worthy Advisor was the installing officer and Georgia's State Master Councilor came by to see Bryan.

Tigard Lodge & DeMolay

On the last day of November, Bryan was initiated an Entered Apprentice Mason of Tigard Lodge. Three past Grand Masters took part in the degree, and another came to watch. The next day, we attended the Lodge's installation. After the kids finished school, we visited several DeMolay chapters, including driving down to Eugene. 
Last night, Tigard Chapter held an initiation, bringing in one new member for them plus one for Milwaukie.
