Three Chairs by the Side of The Road

Look familiar?

 

The saga continues

The teenager moved into her first apartment last weekend. I gave her some pots and pans, some towels and the last maple chair from my parents' kitchen set. She said that she needed more chairs. Before I could finish telling her that she would find all the chairs she needs by the side of the road, she completed my sentence! I've already got a jump start on her by finding one and dragging it home yesterday. I wonder how many she wants?

All arty, like.

The Hunt

Because the rest of the banking world was on holiday, we could not get much work done at the mortgage factory and were unchained from our computers early. Feeling restless I took to the alleys, searching, as always for sightings of chairs by the side of the road and this season, shrub tubs in the recycle bins. My crawl netted five planters. So while it may be early for the rich people to start their spring landscaping, the fire station at Roland and Upland is always reliable in the discarded chair department.

This one looks as if it would match the maple chairs I used to have.

I have graduated from chairs, and so it seems, have my neighbors.

An Arrangement
