I can't believe six months has gone already - it has flown by!!! It's been a blast. We've all learnt a lot along the way and we've always tried to stay true to your vision. Sure we've had a few bumps in the road but we've made it through - and that's thanks to you, Alle, Lilly, Lucky, PNWgal and all the wonderful members who have chosen to spend their time here with us.

Thank you, Red.
As Lilly once observed, (with feigned horror), I almost always list the mods in alphabetical order. Tonight, however, I am going to list them in the order in which they signed up for the 'giant thrill ride' that is creating a brand new website.
Red, Lucky, Alle, PNWgal, and Lilly - thank you for your willingness to take a chance on our "boutique" messageboard; for your perseverance; your patience; and all your hard work. I have never had the pleasure of working with a more gracious and honourable group of people in my entire life.
To all our wonderful members - thank you so much for embracing our little site with such enthusiasm, and making it what it is today. It's hard to reconcile in my own mind, that only six months ago, I was sitting here feeling the first flush of nerves, wondering if I was perhaps in over my head. (I am not a computer-geek by any stretch of the imagination.) It feels like five minutes ago, and yet it's hard to remember a time before MLA existed.
Thanks to all our members for maintaining their faith & sense of humour while we changed web-hosts; struggled to get the smileys installed; and most recently took an unexpected road trip back to the Motel. There have been a few other little issues - some more serious than others - yet through it all, we have continued to forge a sense of community, and even family, here.
Moonlightaholics has evolved in many ways, some aspired to, and others totally unexpected. But it would be nothing without our amazing mods and incredible members.
I thank you all.
Phoenix.
