Since moving to Denver in December 2001 I have met so many wonderful people and have developed friendships with a number of great women. It was hard for me to move across the country and not know anyone in the area. But my new friends helped me to settle right in. Through a number of other opportunities I was able to meet even more women and am grateful for all of the girlfriends I have in my life now - those old and new! I'll be starting all over again in England but I will never forget my friends in Colorado, or South Carolina for that matter, and hope to remain in touch with all of you just as I have in the past. I will be just an email message away! I love you all! Amber

• Laughter makes the world a happier place.
• Friends are like wine; they get better with age.
• Sometimes you just need a shoulder to cry on.
• Great minds think alike, especially when they are female!
• When it comes to "bonding," females do it better.
• It's important to make time to do "girl things."
