American Windsor Chair

This isn't a chair for the dinner table, below.
 It sits for conversation, reading, napping, cradling a kitten, a scotch.
 Originally, below, at our family house on Lake Rabun.
It was,below, in my music room,


Now, below, it's in the kitchen, aka Garden Room, where I look across my rooms, enfilade, into the garden.


New floors, above, arrived at Christmas.  French doors will go in soon, leading to the Conservatory.
.
Notice, you did not see the 25 year old linoleum, disgusting, that went out the door.
.
Would NEVER have put the American Windsor on linoleum.  Seemed disrespectful.

Needing patience.  Have waited a quarter century for these changes and somehow the homestretch is the toughest.

That dredged up my rocking chair memories. I probably put 100,000 miles on our squeaky one when I was young, wore groves in the carpet. My parents didn't seem to mind, at least they knew where I was.

The American Windsor chair is lovely and even more special because of its history. I went to the lake rabun family house link, wonderful house!
The other thing you have that I really love and covet is dulcimers, I've always wanted one and to learn to play one. I dont know what I'm waiting for. You are a kindred spirit.
The best to you
