I've visited lodges in New Hampshire, New York and Florida. As you said, they were the same but different.
I was on vacation last October and my wife couldn't come at the last minute. I was in our travel trailer in a state park in New Hampshire with my cat. Sunday afternoon, everybody including the Rangers left. It was a bit lonely so I got a list of lodges in New Hampshire that were meeting that week off the Grand Lodge web site and started calling the nearest ones' secretaries. I had some great dinners and met too many new friends to count. They do funny things with their rods
About a year ago, I was on another forum and started answering questions from a guy expressing interest in joining. It turned out he was from Keene, NH, the home of Jerusalem Lodge 104. When I visited there, they had a really fun meeting that included a Masonic quiz. I recommended that this guy check them out and had the pleasure of presenting him with a Square and Compasses pin there last week.
I visited a New York City Lodge after arranging it on another forum, too. Their Ritual was very similar to Massachusetts. The biggest difference was that this lodge, at least, always opened on the Third Degree for business meetings while my lodge opens on the First. Another difference was that one of the Officers went around the room and tried every man as part of organizing the lodge. I asked what would have happened if I had failed the trial and was told I would have been escorted out of the room for "a little Masonic education". This being New York City, I didn't ask what that meant
Florida was the most different for me. I went to a lodge in Boca Raton and was surprised when the meeting began and there were men sitting without aprons. As it turned out, they begin their meeting untyled and have some Masonic education and general announcements. Then all the non-Masons are asked to leave and the lodge is tyled and the meeting proceeds. I liked that a lot as so many potential candidates would get a feel for a meeting without any issues on either side. It was also one of the best meals I've had in a lodge.
The company I work for is based in Tel Aviv, Israel. I'm really hoping I get the chance to visit a lodge there some day.
