Well, hello, Denver. Thank you so much for that enthusiastic and warm welcome. We are just thrilled to be here. We are the hashtag sisters in law. And for those of you who are new here, let me introduce my sisters to you. I'll start on the end with the incomparable master of the civil discourse herself, Joyce Vance. Next to her, lawyer turned journalist, columnist for the Boston Globe. Let's give it up for Kimberly Atkins, star. And right here next to me, the Watergate girl herself, Jill Wine Banks. And my name is Barb McQuaid. Well, so wonderful to be here. I am thrilled to be here in Denver. I love this city. I love being in the mountains. She'll tell us, have you ever been to Denver before?

I have been to Denver. I've been to Colorado Springs, I've been to Boulder, I've been to Aspen, and I've been to Vail. So.
A (1:36)
Yeah.
B (1:37)
And of course, my first time ever skiing was in Aspen, and it wasn't entirely successful. I was supposed to go to Vail from there, but I didn't because they didn't teach the graduated length method, and I wasn't advanced enough to go to full skis, so I stayed in Aspen.
A (1:57)
Well, how about you, Kim? Have you been to Denver before?
C (2:00)
I have. I've been to Denver. I've been to all the places that Jill just mentioned as well. I love Colorado. In fact, when I was a teenager, my brother lived in Boulder and I would come to visit him, and I just loved it. And while he was at work, I would walk around, you know, the downtown, and I was taken a little off guard because all these people would just, like, walk up and talk to me. And, you know, I was a teenager from Detroit, so I was like, who are you? What do you. What do you want? Like, we don't do that. And then it finally occurred to me, oh, it's because the people here are nice. And so I, you know, and I would just, you know, say hello to someone, and next thing you know, I'm in a conversation with them where they're showing me pictures of their grandkids. I mean, it just. It was quite something. So it's always been close to my heart, and I love being in Colorado. So thanks for having me here.
