When is the next online meeting? Zoom #?

That is great. Unfortunately, it would cost me too much to fly to Wisconsin from Phoenix, and emailing them to get a virtual link would defeat my purpose as I am looking for monthly, in-person, support groups, so the Zoom version of that Wisconsin one would not work out for me.
I appreciate the invitation. However, I am in Zoom all day for work; I don't want to be in Zoom when I am done with work. I would like to go outside, touch some grass (or rocks and dirt where I am), and talk to people in person. There has been too much Zoom in the last 4 years for me I am really trying to reduce it where I can.

With respect to the Phoenix Mayo group, when I started attending in 5/23, they did host the meeting in a conference room that had some in-person attendees.
Although Candy continued to host meetings in a conference room, no one was in-person for the last couple of meetings before it was suspended in 5/24.
I presume when they resume they could continue to host in a conference room so people can attend in person if they want. But the Phoenix campus is not particularly convenient. It is ~ 1-1/2 hour drive each way, and can be much longer during rush hour. So while I can sympathize with you, for me zoom is more practical.
