an actual in-person meeting on June 20</font><sup><font size="2">th</font></sup><font size="3"> at a larger meeting space
at the Fredericksburg Library. We should know soon. If that in-person meeting
happens, there may also be a virtual component for those not yet ready to
travel or mingle.There will be more about the next meeting soon.</font></font></p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">

to a new Blind Abilities on my Amazon Echo device. As I hope you know, you can
also listen to it on your smart device, or phone, or podcast, or by going to
BlindAbilities.com. Whatever method you choose, the results can be very
informative and entertaining.</font></font></p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">
</font><p style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;"><font face="Calibri"><font size="3"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The edition I am
refering to below is about a Braille keyboard of sorts. This device can link
with computers andsmartphones and I-pads and tablets. It describes how they
work and how a TVI can be involved with working with a student. They also
discuss pricing and possible government financing.</font></font></p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">

</font><p style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;"><font face="Calibri"><font size="3"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I do not know
Braille nor have I worked with a TVI so I am ignorant of some terms used in the
podcast, but it sounds like it could be very important to many BVI students or
the community in general. Listen to it in good health and see you soon</font></font></p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">
