I hope I am not stealing your thunder, but I wanted to thank you for posting your recent visit with Isaac "Mando" Ruiz in CA. OMG it sounds like you had a fantastic time. What a great thing, to meet one of the stars of our favorite show. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.

It made my day :D

Sandra, thank you for your post about your visit with Isaac. I bet you had the best time and have memories that will last a life time. Isaac is such a gem and very down to earth. I am so happy that you two were able to connect. Reading about your visit brought back memories of when I met him last year. It has been a dream come true and I wish anyone the same who has the desire to meet Mando too

Neat story! It sounds like you had a GREAT time! :)

Hey guys,

I really did have a great time. He is so fun, and upbeat. I am even happier that I could share it with everyone. I know I have mentioned this before, and will say again that this was all made possible by Suzanne, and her website for Mando. Without her, I would never had made the connection with him and the continued connection with all of the CATM fans.

The internet is a wonderful thing.

Thanks Luckymama for mentioning my visit on this site, and thank you Cheryl and Suzanne for your posts, I am glad to have shared it with everyone.

Ah geesh ( blushes) Thank you for sharing your wonderful time with Mando. I had a wonderful time reading about your visit with Isaac. After I read about your time with Mando, I ended up reading my little diary again reflecting on my vist with him as well. I could relate to what you and your family were doing with Mando, as I recalled all the time I spent with him. Isaac was my tour guide all throughout Tucson area. He was so spontanious and so much fun to hang around with. Isaac is and will always be a special kind of brother to me.

sfditusa sent me her pictures from her visit with Isaac. They are located in Isaac's main site under "meeting Mando. A dear friend and fan get together"

Thank Sandra, there great!

Those pics are great. Thanks for sharing them. IF I ever get out to AZ to see my son, who is stationed at Fort Huachuca, not far from Tucson, I would love to contact Isaac and meet him as well. Who knows, maybe one day, huh. Sounds like you all had a great time meeting him. :)

I'm glad you liked them, I had a great time, and am glad to be-able to share the pictures with everyone!

I definitely suggest meeting him in person. He is a kind kind man.
