The Lincoln Masonic Lodge #210 held
their annual breakfast that coincides with the Balloons Over 66
Weekend. The breakfast was held at the Masonic lodge at 2022 N
Kickapoo Street in Lincoln. The breakfast ran from 7:30 a.m. to
10:30 a.m.
Inside there were many tables set up for people to eat at. Neople
were welcome to eat and able to get food to-go. According to Nelson
Gulso, a local member of the Masons, there had been a “steady to-go
crowd.”
When someone arrived, they walked
to the front of the room and paid the cashier $10 per meal. They
then went to the window with a tray and were served their breakfast,
which consisted of eggs, biscuits and gravy, and two sausage
patties. If it was a to-go meal, it was served in a foam box. Those
who were sticking around had the option of having some tea, water,
or a cup of coffee.

Gulso was serving
the food, but he was far from the only Mason present. The others
working were Galen Wickline, Jay Gaydosh, Alan Griffith, Tom
Rowland, Gary Nodine, and Nick Fleshman. The men were taking
turns swapping jobs.
They also seemed to be in high spirits. They could be heard
joking around with each other and laughing as they were cooking
and serving. They were very kind and cordial to everyone who
came through, making conversation and keeping the atmosphere
light.
