From the West

By Brian Ross — Senior Warden

Brethren,

On Saturday, May 22, 2021, I had the pleasure of going on a day-long fishing trip to the Farallon Islands with brothers Jerry Garcia (Treasurer of the Temple Board), his sister Theresa, Junior Deacon Phil Busch and family, and Worshipful Paul Rodriguez. I am happy to report (as many of you already know) that lots of big rockfish were caught and brought home. Although the fishing was magnificent, It was a treacherous day on the water with huge waves and swells that tortured the meek – but the sun shined and boy is it beautiful out there. Worshipful Paul nabbed the biggest rockfish and we all caught whoppers – or at least that is our story and we are sticking to it!

This was our first Sportsmen’s Club event of the year (although not officially sanctioned by the Lodge). I am considering planning a trip to the Livermore firing range on a Saturday in July. If you are interested, simply call or email me at any time.

You wanted a Sportsmen’s Club – you have one – so please participate! If you don’t – you miss out on an opportunity to bond with our brothers and the fun that we all enjoy.
