anchorspace asked: Hey Gary-
Glad to know you are doing good works in recovery. It's so important and life affirming. I'd love to be able to attend at some point, but I live out east in Norfolk, VA and there isn't much in the way of buddhist recovery groups or dharma punx around, unfortunately. Maybe one day. Anyway- hoping alls well with you in the here and now. Be Well.
