C is for Chairs
This week’s letter assignment is the letter C.
We spend a lot of time sitting in our chairs at the lake. You may not be aware, but there is a fine art to “Chair-Sitting”. It involves: Stare at the Water and Clouds. Read a Little. Sip on a Drink. Watch the Purple Martins. Hold a Dog in your Lap. Listen to Music. Discuss Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Just Sloooow Down.
Because we use our chairs a lot, I’ve always been conscious of chairs, some placed for function, some seemingly decorative only~ curious about where people sit & how often. I thought I’d take you on a quick chair tour and share some we’ve run across in our boating on the lake.
First up, Red Chairs~
I always enjoy seeing signs of activity~ evidence that people are enjoying the lake~
I love that no one is afraid of color that lives here :-)
These chairs were lined up like theatre seats for a 4th of July fireworks display. . .
Someone very tidy lives here. . .
I took this photo and didn’t realize these chairs were fish at the time, until I transferred my photos :-)
I’m joining A Southern Daydreamer for Outdoor Wednesday &
Jenny Matlock’s Aphabe-Thursday for Alphabet Fun.
I love them. My favorites are the mulitcolored ones on the dock. That just looks so pretty to me!
that was fabulous! i love benches, chairs, i have them every 50′ on my property to sit and rest on this $@#* hill! i could look at outdoor chairs all the live long day~ and to sit by the water… well you know how much i want that, its an unnatural desire :)
I loved all of these photos!!! I never even thought about there being so many kinds of chairs…the red ones are gorgeous, the white ones look like popsicle sticks and those fish one…well they are so artistic!!!
Great chairs! Makes me want to step outside and sit in the sun.
May I sit and chat a bit?

Wonderful chairs! I think the fish chairs are most clever. They are definitely my favorites. I like the unusual. ;-)
Good idea for a post I love them, my favourite are the rocking chairs
Great post…old chairs, new chairs, red chairs and blue chairs! How fun was that!!
Loved your “Study on Chairs”. So creative.
I love Adirondack chairs!
Hopping by from Outdoor Wednesday, what a fantastic array of chairs.
What a great post! I love all the chairs, especially the fish ones!
Love all those chairs in so many different colors!
Have a good weekend,
LOLA:)

omg those fish chairs are hysterical … and yes, there is an art to sitting!!!
I love adirondack chairs, they are just the perfect seat for a lazy summer (fall, spring, maybe even winter) . Great pictures!
I love the chairs. The fish chairs are so cute. The red chairs would be my pick to sit back and watch people out on the water.

This is so absolutely comfortable and cool! I would love to sit in those chairs and watch the world go by! I am so glad I came over. Please come visit me soon. Anne
Really great blog posts and pictures on outside chairs. I really like all the pictures in this blog.
I love every one of those chairs and how heavenly, by the lake. Thought I just might take up residence on the pastel coloured ones though!
LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVE all the chairs! My favorite are the red ones, but I was surprised at all the different takes on that ‘Adirondack’ style of chair.
There’s a drawing on my Wed post you might enjoy.
Hello…first time here via alpha thursday…
L.O.V.E. these chairs…i thought the reds would be my
FAV until i saw the pastels…and the FISH…how cute!

what a lot of chairs! I love to sit and read and sip….One of those chairs looked like it had a C in it!
I find it really interesting how the chairs seem to take on their own personalities as you talk about them. It’s as if they’re not really chairs but beings who are lounging there by the water and enjoying the nice day :) Great photos!
I have some yellow chairs on my deck that serve the same purpose! I love your description of chair sitting, read a little, sip a little, chat a little! LOL…
I do the same thing every chance I get…
Wish I were sitting in any one of those chairs! Or all of them, by turns…
=)
I love chairs too. I am a chair sitter from way back. I even have two wonderful black rocking chairs on my front porch from which I watch the world go by. Love those Adirondack chairs. My dad made each one of girls our very own Adirondack chair when I was a little girl. He painted each one a different color. Thanks for reminding me! ~Ames
What beautiful chairs! Makes me want to go on vacation!
Great photo and what a view!
I love those fish chairs – and your red chairs, too. What a place to spend a sunny summer afternoon.
love that one that is shaped like a fish…so cute…bkm
wonderful tour de chairs! The lifestyle of chair-sitting sounds great! Thanks for introducing me!
What a fantastic little tour of chairs! Love the fish ones! Love the idea of sitting by a lake watching the world go verrrrrry slowly by.

You made me smile…and wish to be there!
