Old Pear Tree

Wooden Chair

Once this chair was old and painted white. It sat on an L shaped porch in the South for many years soaking in the sun rays and offering friends and family a gathering spot.

I forget how I came into possession of my grandfather's porch chair and why I would want to bring it with me to my marriage into a different style home, but came it did. My husband, who loves natural wood, was pleased to have it restored - stripped, cleaned, reseated, and rubbed with a natural finish.

This chair is a beloved piece of my childhood. Sits near me as I type on my computer. Wonder how it will fare for the future. Beloved things, reminiscent of good memories, just like family.
