As far as I'm concerned, they will always be in.
As a matter of fact, the last time we were at the Jetport here in Portland I waited in a great white rocker. There are probably 20 or so sprinkled around the waiting areas. Also, given the choice of a chair or a rocker for my retirement with a nice plaque attached, I opted for the rocker. In my book, you can't go wrong settling for a good rocking chair. I grew up with one in the kitchen next to the wood stove, and these days there are a couple rocking in our home. Sitting in the sun on this porch only adds to the pleasurable experience.
my sis has been after me to get a rocker or swing here. she can't seem to sit still when she visits and hates that all my chairs outside are 'hard-wired'. :)
ReplyDeleteI have one and like them too! Maybe we have a kind of nostalgy of our baby time ?..
ReplyDeleteFor anxiety prone people such as myself, rockers are a godsend.
ReplyDeleteRock on, Birdman!
ReplyDeleteRevRunner took my words!
ReplyDeleteHartford's Bradley International has similar rockers. I like sitting there when I wait for a flight, too. Maybe it is because I read aloud from a rocker several hours a day.
ReplyDeleteLove those rockers! And more and more airports are including them . . .
ReplyDeleteI have always loved rocking chairs. These are very appealing!
ReplyDeletePorches were meant for rocking chairs, especially here in the South.
ReplyDeleteWho says they are out? I have two rockers on my porch in CT and they get a good workout. Charlotte airport must have 100 white rockers scattered around and people battle to get a seat in them.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful set of rockers.
ReplyDeleteAmen, I'll take a rocking chair any day.
ReplyDeletewho says they're out? dummies!
ReplyDeleteNo easy chairs here...but 3 rockers...Whose porch is that?
ReplyDeleteI too love rockers. My favorite one is the one I bought from an Amish man named Yoder that makes them in his Michigan farm shed. -- barbara -- FOLKWAYS NOTEBOOK
