You’ll all be pleased to hear that I have overcome the technical difficulties of constructing a horse and human sized sweat lodge. Now my horse (Marley) and I are planning on going on a vision quest. My last vision quest lasted all night (about 9 hours), would it be safe for Marley to be in a sweat lodge for at least that long… possibly longer?

I think you should have no problem with that, Just warning horses have some wacked out vision quests some times… he may get frightend and want to sleep in you’r bed with you the next night because horses are big wimps… but who doesent like it when their horse sleeps with them? as long as they dont fart to much… hopefully he has been sticking to arbys?

Okay so does sugarloaf have enough public bathrooms, is there a base lodge? Im going there in a couple of hours and im feelibg oretty sick so I wanted to know ahead of time. Thanks!

yes, there is a base lodge with rest rooms.

Ok so I have a cabin/lodge room but it’s not really like as cozy as I’d like it to be. I know it has to do with the lights so how can I get that cozy feel out of the lights to tie the room together?Are there like certain types of shade cover things u put over the lights to do that? If so what are they, where can i get them, and are they inexpensive?
Thanks!

I would see if Goodwill/thrift stores have any lampshades, they usually have tons. I would also change the bulbs to smart energy saving bulbs, soften them w/ frosted glass.

My Great grandfather was a Mason in Detroit. I just do not know what the lodge number he was a member to. I am trying to join the eastern star and the form asks for the number. Can anyone help?

Do you happen to know the name of the Lodge he belonged to? That would be the easiest way to find out. The Lodge might even have a website you could find if you did a web search of the name. But it’s also possible the Lodge has "gone dark" (closed). Many Lodges have lost membership and surrendered their charters or merged with other Lodges.

The answerer directing you to the Grand Lodge of Michigan is on the right track, because they should have all the records. But I’d like to amend her answer and say the more information you have when contacting the Grand Lodge, the better. Do you know the name of the Lodge he belonged to? Do you know the dates when he took his Degrees, or at least the year(s)? His birthday? How about the neighborhood where his Lodge was located, or where he lived/worked (he probably belonged to a Lodge near where he lived or worked, but that’s not a guarantee). The more information you can provide to help narrow down their search, the better the chances of finding the answer…because they probably have MOUNTAINS of records they would have to sift through, especially since records relating to your Great Grandfather are probably sitting in a filing cabinet and haven’t been entered into a computer.

There’s also a chance you might find the answer yourself by searching through his old things. When he was raised to Master Mason, your great-grandfather would have received a diploma. The name of the Lodge along with its number should be on that diploma.

Good luck!

So I like have a thing for old men who are rich and stuff

I want to associate with them and I thought about joining a Masonic lodge in London UK

Do I have to be a Satan to join ? Who do they accept exactly?

What is the initiation process?

Thanks

The Illuminati were a Bavarian political action group that ceased to exist 226 years ago. Duh.

Freemasonry is a fraternity, not a religion. If you want to join the fraternity, go to your local Lodge and ask to join.

I am seeking advice for the financing of a bed and breakfast/lodge business. I have 10 acres of picturesque land in Park Co, Colorado. It is less than a mile to the border of Pike national forest, an hour’s drive from skiing in Breckenridge, and about an hour from Colorado Springs.
Will a commercial loan work for the cost of building? Is there a way for a small business loan to cover costs of furnishing the building and marketing expenses to get started?

A business loan can cover capital expenses and operating expenses of a business. The key question is: Will you be approved for a loan?

Getting a business loan is NOT easy – especially with the tough economic climate.

You just don’t go to a bank to ask for a loan with only your business idea. Banks look at other factors not just your credit score when applying for a business loan. Banks want to see:

- demonstrated ability of the business to generate revenues — businesses that are already operating and have at least 2 years’ worth of financial statements that demonstrate strong profitability. Business ideas are just ideas; not proven to generate profits

- ability to repay the loan through collaterals and assets

- solid management team: they want to know that the business will be run by someone who knows what they are doing

- excellent credit history

- your investment in the business: they want to see that you believe in your business enough to put down your own money into the business

If you have the above, then prepare a business plan. – The business plan is NOT the first thing banks want to see. It’s important, but banks will need to see your ability to repay the loan. Sometimes, they won’t even bother to read your business plan if they know you don’t have any money. If you have to have a business plan, you need a good executive summary (as that is what they’re most likely read, if at all) PLUS solid, realistic financial projections/plans

My washing machine is not functioning. Customer care people recorded the issue and send one person to rectify. But he is asking more money to fix that issue and they are not giving any warranty after repair. This I verified with other service providers and understand that, once they create invoice they have to give minimum warranty for the service they render. But these people not ready to give any warranty. I need to lodge a complaint on this. Please help me.
