Our Anniversary


Melissa and I celebrated our sixth wedding anniversary today. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner last night at Restaurant Local. It was a great meal. I had told them when making the reservation that it was our anniversary, so when it came time for dessert the waiter informed us that the chef had prepared something special for us. It was a delicious chocolate cake/mouse combination and a small cheesecake dessert with raspberry topping. Mmm, Mmm good. We had decided to have dinner on Friday evening because the first WVU football game was Saturday afternoon at 3:30 and we wanted to watch the game. We enjoyed a liesurely day by visiting the local Amish Market and our weekly farmer's market. The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum was having their annual boat auction so we decided to drive down to St. Michaels and take a look around. We ran into our friends Tom and Renee who were at the auction hoping to get a good deal on a boat. They were successful and came away with a nice 19' double rowing skiff. We hung around as long as we could and still be home in time for the game. We made it back in time to watch the Mountaineers win the game. We celebrated with some grilled steaks. Our friends Wally and Tina came over bringing some local sweet corn and we all had a tasty dinner out on the deck. What a way to celebrate our anniversary, good friends, good food and college football.
