Well, the new member investigation committee just made a trip out to my apartment to "interview" me ... 

All kidding aside, the Brothers of Union Lodge #19 went out of their way to make me feel at ease with the whole process and were here for about an hour.  They asked me several questions to ascertain my religious beliefs, commitment to the process, motivations for becoming a Mason, importance placed on family and my level of involvement in the community.  After the interview report was filled out, we discussed masonry in a more abstract manner in order to clear up any lingering questions and/or misconceptions I might have had about the Craft.  All in all, the process was very helpful and I would like to thank the guys for coming down in a last minute attempt to get me balloted on before the lodge goes dark for the Summer months. 

Now to await word of the vote...
