My new chair.

My new chair. An Ekornes Mayfair. I love it. Sometimes I just need to be really comfortable and this chair does it

And don't worry, we'll bring our own chairs so you won't have to share yours.

When we announced the wife's first pregnancy, my Uncle and Aunt got a local (to them) wood magician to build her a custom to her measurements rocking chair.

*very comfy* for anyone that sits in it

who painted that portrait of the ocean? do you realize there could be unseen scuba divers lurking off that beach? waiting for the moment you turn your back..........and they will steal your new chair and be gone in 60 seconds from whence they came.


yep theres a rash of these scuba diver chair thefts here arizona lately. i'd buy a lock for the chair and the picture of the ocean.

So, divers are going to come out of a painted picture? Is Alice in Wonderland at your place tonight?

Too much Scottish blood in me to drop that many Benjamins on a chair, I bought it second hand but barely used

My old hammock

My hammock might give your chair a decent run for the money.

I'll agree with this... I have one of those ultralight backpacking hammocks... I tie it between two trees whenever I can. Best thing ever, and I can relax in that thing for hours....

Looking good and the weather for it too.

Around here the wind would blow me out of a hammock.

Happy to hear you like your new chair.
.
I felt like I finally arrived home when I sat in these two chairs by The Human Touch.
There was total relaxation when my feet were elevated higher than my head.
I may still buy one. Priced between $1,200 -- $2,000.
