    What I did last night.

    Just so you guys don't think I'm only a pretty face, here's what I did last night.


    Here's me getting the Mason of the year award from the Grand Master of California, the Most Worshipful Richard Wakefield Hopper.



    Here's me holding the award



    And here's the award......

    I wore my full traditional Catanach, Strome wool MacKenzie Weathered and Harris tweed jacket conversion by Lady Victoria.

    The food was awful, but then we didn't go there for the food.

    Cool, huh?

    I never mistook you for just another pretty face. Good to see that I was right!

    Congrats, James! That's awesome- and it means that you do a lot of good for a lot of people. Hats off to you.

    I know the Freemasons are private; so, I understand the beard disguise. Congrats!
