Missing chair

[ALANSD]

my barrels are quite comfortable, though no lazy boy. I recovered them in leather like stuff that matches the captains chairs.

We had a chair like that in our second AS TT and two like that in each of our MHs. They are VERY comfortable.

The new owner of the TT didn't want the chair, so we kept it. It sits in our home office because it is so comfortable for sitting and reading!

The problem with the chairs as shown in the ebay ad is that they need to be bolted to the floor, so you can't move them around.

Edie,
Are you talking about an Ekornes' chair?

I am having a time finding a store near me within 100 mils that sells them.

Will keep trying to see what I can find.

I am just afraid the chairs eBay would not be comfortable to read in for any length of time.........and that is what I am wanting. I read to keep out of trouble, try not to roam the camp grounds causing trouble. lol

Here's a thought. Very expensive - but if monies no object you could fit a couple of these in a trailer without removing the couch no problem. I sat on one of these a couple of times and they are very comfortable. Joe

May I ask a personal question?

How the heck did you come up with such a name as "barkingspider"? All the spiders I have ever come into contact with did not bark. In fact they were rather quiet, especially after I stepped on them.

The picture of the chair is a bit confusing to me, I will have to check into this. It does not come across when I pull it up to well. But probably a good idea, since $$$ is a big determining factor in what I buy. I do like to eat too. Not just sit and read.

Thank you though for your message.

I worked for years with a bunch of Vietnam vets. Any loud, gassy, emission, would always be blamed on a barking spider that they claimed inhabited the lab but was never seen. They claimed it only came out in the dark.

Every time I see his handle, I think of those guys.

Thanks John for the lesson. This is the first for me but it is always good to learn new things and interesting facts.

I can always bring this up over the camp fire at our next Rally south of Chatanooga. Wish you could attend, you might enlighten us more on the subject.

Sure glad I ain't around these guys. I don't care for spiders day or night and at night you can't see them.
Well, I guess you can hear these...........................lol

Wonder what would happen if I google that? Think I will try.

No, I was refering to the chairs Alan was talking about in the post just before mine.

Ok Edie, I stand corrected, got a bit confused there.

Seems quite normal for me lately.

I just remembered that they always referred to it as a "Cambodian Barking Spider". Why Cambodian, I have no idea.

That is what I am wanting one for.

Also I would hate to put holes through the carpet and the love of my life, Mariposa!

I will check it out though, appreciate your post.

I was in Wal-Mart the other day, and they have small glider-type rocker recliners with a gliding ottoman. When not in use the ottoman can be put in the seat of the recliner. I have owned chairs similar to these, and they are very comfortable, as well as being small, and relatively lightweight. Plus, they are a whopping $150.00 for the set.

Gosh, thanks Terry, I am on my way to WalMart to check it out.

Now if I can just remember where WalMart is. First thing to go is memory as you state in your message.
