Exciting Week

What a fun week this has been! On Monday I drove to Denton, Maryland (about an hour from Ocean City, MD) to visit my old college roommate and the best man in my wedding, Brian. I haven't seen Brian in over a year and half, so this visit was long overdue. I had a wonderful time hanging out with Brian and his wife. He took me canoeing at the state park near his house and then we went to Dewey Beach in Delaware for the rest of the day.

Then, after returning home on Wednesday, Mrs. Rodgers and I traveled to New York City to celebrate our 5th Anniversary. 5 years--it sure doesn't feel like I've been married for 5 years. What were you doing 5 years ago? Think about how fast 5 years passes. While in New York City, we saw the major sites--Times Square, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, FAO Schwartz, etc. We also saw John Mayer playing in Rockefeller Center as part of the Today Show. Later on, we caught Sheryl Crow playing near Central Park for CBS's Early Show. We finished the day with a Broadway show. We saw Memphis, the story of a white radio dj who starts playing black music in 1950s Memphis. Words can't describe how good it was. It was excellent and was definitely the highlight of our trip! The Big Apple was fun, but it's sure good to be home.
