The Stone Chair or A Chair with a View



This chair was made and designed for me by one of my dearest friends, Carl. I did offer my feeble help but he was the strength and the brains behind it! It faces the pond and is a lovely throne upon which to recline and reflect. I have sighted all manner of woodland creatures from this perch including pileated woodpeckers and an American woodcock. Chipmunks scamper around as if I'm not even present. Even the skittish squirrels peek around the branches and chatter to me. Many, many Rose Garden designs and displays were dreamed up while relaxing there and I expect many more. [You see, you never really retire from something you love--you just change direction a bit.]
