We use Zoom for a number of my volunteer activities and I'm not much of a fan of the video either, so I just let them see my kitchen counter behind me. On the other hand I really love it with my kids and grands.

Delighted to report that my daughter, out-of -state, walked me through the Zoom set up this weekend and I was able to see and hear the whole family!!! Was wonderful. ... Even better, I'm technically challenged and camera shy, vbg, and didn't know how to access my computer camera so I could see and hear them but they could only hear me...Luv it!!!!

Hadn't seen them since visit in Sept. so this was a terrific experience.

A bit of history: In 1980, in St. Louis at the SWBT home office, I participated in a very early model of "video conferencing". The prediction was that this would become available for work and home use in the near future. Who knew I would live to actually experience a version of it in my own home and at a time when virtual connections were more impt. than ever.

We are so fortunate to be living in this country and time of so many technical and medical discoveries.
