Text 10　　 Barbara Herrera is my best friend. We’re both from Chicago, but now I live in San Francisco and Herrera lives in Atlanta. We don’ t see each other very often, but we’re in touch all the time. I often write to Herrera and tell her about all the things that are happening at the Ajax Company. I’m the office manager there. And she often writes to me about her work at the Valley Hospital. She’s a doctor there.

　　　　　　　　 We talk on the phone once a week, either on Saturday or Sunday morning. There are also other ways we communicate with each other. Sometimes I call her on her car phone, or we send e-mail to each other.

　　　 We’re really lucky. In this new age of communication, there are so many ways we can keep in touch with each other. We live in different cities on different coasts, but we’re in touch all the time.
