Remembering Dad

St. George, Utah

My father died in 1978 while tying his shoes on this chair. Two decades later I found this chair in pieces out by the barn. The seat was broken, two spindles missing, and the paint peeling. I resurrected this chair in my workshop. This image is a tribute to my father.

a fantastic shot. this is not so much about the shot itself but the story it tells, just great.
I am a hobby woodworker myself so I appreciate the fact that you fixed the chair yourself.
