Easy Chair Rider by olivetreeann

Easy Chair Rider

We came out from church today and this was what we saw parked across the street. It would certainly be a grand ride today- sunny and warm temps. But I imagine it's a bit soggy on the rainy days!
Cool

@kerristephens Thank you Kerri!

Nice find. Do you think someone actually rides back there?
August 25th, 2013  
Best views for sure! Love the color pop between the building and truck!
August 25th, 2013  
good idea
August 26th, 2013  
Ha Ha! Great find and wonderful title. A fav for creativity!

So funny! On "homecoming weekend" on Beaver Island, we see these a lot. I can't imagine how unpleasant it must be to ride on something like this in the open -- especially with our dusty roads. Great capture!

Where is Granny? Nice find!

As long as they don't go too fast, it would be great!

@caroleb Thanks Carole! No, I have a feeling someone was just moving it from one place to another.
@moreyoulessme Thanks Jerri! The original had a lot of red, so I thought it would work better to have contrasting colors between the truck, tree and building.
@sarasdadandmom Thanks Terry!
@allie912 Thanks Allison- and thanks so much for the fav!!
@taffy Thanks Taffy! I don't know if paved roads are that much cleaner!
@httpgeffed lol Colleen! Great minds think alike- that was my first thought too!
@maggiemae Thanks Maggie- but I'd rather ride a Harley. (Or an Indian!)

I cannot see a seat belt.
August 26th, 2013  
Interesting, and I thought of the Beverly Hillbillies with Granny sitting on the chair

@yaorenliu Thanks Yao- You are correct, there is no belt- it was just sitting back there- unattached!
@digitalrn Thanks Rick! I did too when I first saw it.

i will certainly browse through again tonight before i do my posting. i'm going by what i've seen in the few exhibitions and photo contests I've been to. exciting isn't it?

Great find! My neighbor was one of about 9 children, and when their mother became crippled, they would take her recliner to family reunions so she'd be comfortable.
August 26th, 2013  
Quite the sight to see. I wonder if they would enforce the safety belt law when riding in that chair!
August 26th, 2013  
hehehe! This is so funny!
August 27th, 2013  
@twr Thanks Timothy!
@summerfield Thanks Vikki- and wow, thanks for the feedback! This will really be helpful as this is the first competition I've been in for a LONG time! I have no clue what to pick!! No colleges in this town, so I think they were just moving it. But it sure did look funny!
@eudora Thanks Diane! Wow- what a great family- that was so nice to do that for Mom!
@salza Thanks Sally! I have a feeling they were just moving it, but it sure did look funny back there.
@mrssmith203 Thanks Carla! I thought so too!

@olivetreeann - oops! i included your selfie as a possible entry. you could do that also if you like because it has a holiday magical quality but what i actually meant was the candle shot at the end of that row. sorry, old person making mistake. hehe!
August 27th, 2013  
i remember, but i can't find, one of your earlier shots of coloured vases or bottles. that's also one of your outstanding shots.
August 27th, 2013  
I am hoping they were moving house and it wasn't a permanent fixture

@nicolecampbell Thank you Nicole!

@summerfield Well, I looked through my albums and came up with 4- July 14, 2013, January 15,2012 and May 13, 2011 all in the 365 album but none of them I'd see you picking for a competition. Could it be from the Themes and Competitions album- August 17, 2012? I took that one in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
August 27th, 2013  
@summerfield Really?! I think I could take that one so much better now! I agree with you on the corn shot though- and that one made the pp too. And Jeff's guitar- that's a personal fav.

Bev
Great shot, Ann! I guess if you want to keep cool, why not ride in a chair in the back of a pickup truck? And the chair matches the trucks color! I just hope it has a seat belt! Well spotted! Nice job :)

@prttblues Thanks Bev! Yeah, I wonder how Granny stayed strapped in!
