It is really quite amazing how this "family" is still actively intact with so many of the early group still here ...

And Steve was right when he referred to MM as a 'second family' -a second Spanish family smile that is ...

I had just purchased my first computer and was excited about internet! The first search I ever did on the web was "Madrid", and out popped MM! I couldn't believe that an American out there was as crazy as I was about Madrid and Spain!
I told all my friends about the forum and the site as if to say, "See, there are others out there as crazy as I am!"
I've been here ever since, checking in almost daily for 10 years. This is a group I am proud to call friends. I've met many of you, MM, Steve, Esperanza, etc, and even though some of you are still cyber friends, one day our real paths will cross.

Thank you MM and to all of you for enhancing my life and sharing our passion for Spain!

Finding MadridMan in 2001 was like a dream come true for me. It continues to be a place I can go to anytime to read about and share all that I love about Spain (and Madrid in particular). It has become even more important as the years have gone by too. Making friends with MM, laduque, Chica and Steve has been a highlight of this board. I have met many members of the message board throughout the years and they are such good people. This is truly a special place. !Viva MadridMan!

What brought me to MadridMan??? Several years have passed since my first visit, but at that time I think AOL and a search engine were fundamental. ...... The better questions, is what keeps bringing me back? The great sense of community amongst hispanophiles like myself.
