Sandee Rogers
Sandee is proud of her heritage as an "Air Force brat" and later
as an officer's wife. Besides being a nurse,
and raising a family in all corners of the world, she has over 20
years experience in the travel business. Sandee was a travel director
for Air Force wives clubs in Europe, then a licensed travel agent, working in an agency, and later out of her home. Both she and Buzz have completed a Bed and Breakfast seminar, and have waited to operate their own B&B for years. Sandee's role will be that of Innkeeper and guide to the area's wide range of attractions, while Buzz manages the business.
Buzz Rogers
Buzz has long had a dream of opening his own resort since
working at his family's recreational resort in northern
Wisconsin while still a youth. Before he would realize
his dream, however, he served for 22 years in the Air Force,
and retired as a Lt. Colonel in 1988. During this time he
also married and raised 3 daughters, while enjoying the
opportunity to travel all over the world. After leaving the
Air Force, Buzz was hired by Digital Equipment Corporation as
a program manager, managing large computer development and
operations projects. In 1997 the dream was reborn when Buzz
was transferred by Digital to Colorado Springs. Once there the family
knew that Monument, CO would be the perfect place to build Rogers Inn the Pines, their bed
and breakfast haven.
