Morning Thoughts: Butterfly Chairs and Strange Coincidences

I was thinking about seating this morning. I think I want another comfy chair for the trailer. I like to have plently of seating when we have people over, and hate resorting to the dining room chairs. Mike and I discussed it, and he advocated for something that could be folded up and stored away. Good thinking. Later on in the morning I had an epiphany as I drove to work: what about a butterfly chair?!

Do you remember them, from the 70s, then again in the 90s? I had one that went from apartment to apartment with me in college. I found a nicer, updated version at Bed Bath and Beyond for $50.

And a less fancy version for $40.

 

Hmmm... Food for thought. Those 20% coupons sure will come in handy...

After I shook myself out of my reverie I glanced at the rear quarter panel of the vehicle in the next lane. I have to mention, the sun was directly in my eyes for most of the drive, so I was concentrating on driving (and having flashbacks, apparently). I instantly recognized it. I looked closer, this time at the driver's door, and sure enough, it was my neighbor. He and his wife own Apple D'OR Tree, Inc out of Southborough, MA. The company logo is pretty distinct.

They do a lot of work in Framingham and in the city of Boston. We see Santos truck several times a month during our commutes to and from work. I guess it wouldn't be so strange, except that we always see him 20 or 35 miles away from where we both live. It is a small world!

So, no big news or excitement here. The morning has been one of random thoughts.

Have a Happy Day!
