Chris, very cool of you to go to all the work of getting these pix posted online, as a fellow although later in life pro-photographer I can really appreciate all the work it took you. As far as this photo brings back alot of GREAT memories from this trip, one of the better one from back in the day. I remember this Spanish kid was enthralled with our cameras and binoculars. Of course we had the coolest hats !! All the best.

Chris, Thanks for posting these pictures. The foggy events of that night are starting to come back. New Years '71 to and from Puerta del Sol to the Meson del Estudiante? Steve

Steve Durgin said 379 days ago

Chris, Thanks so much. This is such a treasure for so many people. Guess it goes to show one never knows how the 'routine' work ones does may benefit others years from now! Hope to see you at a future reunion....

Hi Chris(fellow Accolade staff member) Thanks for posting these great photos. I'm guessing you're the photographer that took the infamous, according to my parents at least, 1972 yearbook photo of me about to guzzle a bottle of champagne. it looks like a lot of these were from that night and it brings back a lot of great, though somewhat fuzzy, memories. I hope you will post more. I'm looking forward to them. Roy Jackson

Roy Jackson said 392 days ago

Great pics, Chris! Hope you find more pics of football and basketball (if any). Always fun to see pics that were taken that didn't make it into the yearbooks. Good stuff! P-Bear

Pablo Bear said 449 days ago

That's Joe Marsh blocking Kilpatrick(63)for Floyd(15)

Rob Floyd said 450 days ago

Ok, I'll give you this one Tank.

Rob Floyd said 450 days ago

You just know that ball carrier ran through that arm tackle. Then it's up to that blocker if he misses it's Rob vs. Rob

Rob Floyd said 450 days ago

Hehe, this is a pic of Robby and Rob

Rob Floyd said 450 days ago

Hi! It is so much fun to look at these photos and then find one of myself too!! That's me, Lynne Anderson, Grace Quintero(a girl from a convent, desperate to leave, who lived with my family for a while) and I think that's Stve Klinger behind us. Thanks so much for taking the time & effort to post these photos!!!

Lyn Anderson Jones said 451 days ago

Wow, what a treasure trove! I can recall many of those moments with the photos acting as a memory recall button. En hora buena. Mike McCleary (75)

Michael McCleary said 451 days ago

Oh my Goodness... there is Fred Schultz. WOW... I just wrote him a letter this week. This is sooo cool seeing him in this picture. Brings back some great memories..:)

Hello to all who remember me! I remember you Chris! Thank you for the walk down memory lane...just brings joyful tears to mis ojos y mi corazon! NOTE to Tom Pooler: Our wonderful John Kincaide is currently in Sacramento, CA. He attended our Reunion, weekend of July 24th. John is entering his last year of Law School! He is an amazing & wonderful man! I just love what you have put together, Chris! Abrazos...Leslie K. Bogue '75

Leslie Kathryn Bogue said 456 days ago

Zunigas' first name was Jose and he once resided during early 80s in either Colorado Springs or Pueblo,CO...last I recall. Another great pic:-)

Tom Pooler said 460 days ago

John Kincaide on end of rope was a regular visitor to our home in Royal Oaks...anybody know his status.

Tom Pooler said 460 days ago

COOL...absolutely cool.At 2:30 in the morning, just great fun. Thanks Angela for the pointer to this photo portfolio. Was in newspaper production for last decade..enough material here for a short-run print paperback. Page 1 could be an intro poem from Paul May, with insights from others on following pages???

Tom Pooler said 460 days ago

Angela Carlucci referred frm Bretts site...what a surprise. A pic of me,1st in line, that I have no knowledge of. Was this the dinner for receiving varsity letters circa73-74?

Tom Pooler said 460 days ago

As Bob Hope would say"Thanks for the memories" These brought back many memories for me as I graduated from there in 1968 and just came from the reunion in Sacramento and it was the best one yet!

Deana Snook Hammett said 462 days ago

This certainly brought back memories ... I too was in Spain during that time ... but not in high school ... I went to the Middle School. Before that to Royal Oaks Elementary ... we lived in Royal Oaks. Thanks for doing that ... those memories will live in all of those who lived it with you. Do you know of anyone who has pictures from Royal Oaks ... in particular of us Elementary and Middle School kids? That would be great!

Dear Chris, Thank you so much for all you did in getting these photos out to us. Gracias! My name is Danielle Glaysher-Cobian, yes, Gordon Glaysher's 2nd daughter (he has 3 daughters and 3 sons, now 5 grandchildren and one coming..)It was areal treat to see him doiing what he loved. As you may know , he passed on to the great Gospel Choir in the skies in 1998. I especially enjoyed the photo of the band set-up and playing outdoors...great days indeed. I am so grateful to have had that upbringing! Un abrazo fuerte, Danielle

Danielle Glaysher-Cobian said 474 days ago

Chris: I recognized myself in a couple of the photos. I think I must of been in 5th or 6th grade. My older brother, Pedro (class of '75) sent me your link. Thanks for the blast of the past and the memories. Best, Luis Vidal

Luis Vidal said 481 days ago

(10-18-08 NOTE: Another 100+ photos have been added in a second album entitled "Mas Madrid 1970-74 Torrejon" etc. Enjoy and please leave a comment or email at chris_fierro@sbcglobal.net.) While visiting my parents' house in Eurovillas (Madrid) in May, 2008, I stumbled upon a trove of negatives that I took in Madrid and at THS from 1970 to 1974, and some photo prints of that era (some taken by others) that I believed to have been lost many years ago. Some were taken as a camera buff, many were taken as a HS yearbook and newspaper photog during those years. Many of the negatives and prints are in bad shape,having been originally under or overexposed, developed under less than ideal conditions, or stored in a dusty pantry for 34 years. Fortunately digitalizing technology has allowed for significant correction and although many pictures are not pristine, in most we are able to identify our colleagues, friends, and teachers. Responses identifying individuals in the pictures are appreciated. It is my intention to forward this or a similar effort to the various Madrid High alum associations. I hope you enjoy this unexpected blast from the past. Comments, feedback, and reconnections always welcome, particuarlary to identify the many protaganists of thes photos. Abrazos, Chris
