I love this chair. It lives outside the Northern Light Surf Shop in Bodega, California, a town familiar to fans of Hitchcock’s ‘The Birds’. I pass through Bodega almost daily on my way to Doran Beach for a run, and sometimes stop for a chat at the surf shop and a dose of afternoon sun. I’m told the chair was once a rocker and that it has roots on the East Coast. It is incredibly comfortable, and has inspired my thinking of a bent greenwood chair made exclusively from coppiced material. On slow days, the surf shop owner can be found snoozing on the porch in the surf shop chair.
