old new chair for my plot

chair
I made a great find yesterday. (How I love trash day!!) Someone left a beaten up old Adirondack chair at their curbside. It needs a new board here and nail there. And a fresh coat of paint. (I'm thinking green.) It'll be perfect in my plot. Its so comfortable! And nothing like the flat arms of an Adirondack chair to hold clippers, seed packages, camera and beverages! I look forward to sitting in it and watching my plants grow.

Great find, what is the origin of an Adirondack chair, I have only ever seen them your side of the pond.

Great find indeed. I'd love to find one just out for the trash. I don't think the plastic copies are quite the same. Enjoy it!

that does look comfy! And with a flat surface for a glass of wine too!

Great chair! Reminds me of Kenny Chesney's song, "Old Blue Chair".

What's a garden without a place to sit? Great find !

My Dad came by my garden last year and there was no place for him to sit. I think I'll repaint the chair blue - maybe a different shade. That's a great song about the Old Blue Chair.
