    Pictures GM SPECIAL World Conference

    May 8th, 2008 by Ryan

    Brother William J. Baumbach II wrote on alt.masonic.members :

    05-07-08 Pictures of the World Conference of Masonic Grand Lodges reception
    held at the George Washington Masonic Memorial in Alexandria, Va. There were
    about 600 registered Grand Masters and their entourage from around the
    World. They came by the bus load, about 10 buses all together, they also
    arrived in Limousines. A few also had bodyguards, and with how they had
    speakerphone earpieces and how they talked up their jacket sleeve into a
    microphone, it made me feel like I was with the president of the United
    States and his Secret Service Agents! And several different languages were
    being spoken. I was not able to take pictures of all 600 because they
    arrived in groups and separated throughout the building, but here are 72
    pictures for you to enjoy.

    Even though I was only there to take pictures for Most Worshipful Ed Cohen
    the Grand Master of Virginia, and I did not have an earpieces in my ear, nor
    talked up my jacket sleeve, “I had his back”, i.e. I doubled as his
    bodyguard! :-) LOL.

    As an added bonus, never before seen pictures of the newest Masonic exhibit
    at the GWMM, they had just placed the Plexiglas covers on the displays
    around 4pm today and you could still smell the fresh paint.
