Hi guys, A girlfriend of mine fell in love with the hanging chairs they have outside the Divi Dive shop. Lutty told us he got them from Ecuador. We haven't been able to find them online or anywhere else. They have a woven fabric seat with rope attached to a wooden stretcher overhead. The added bonus is you can unfold them to make them longer (more hammock-like). Does anyone know where we can find them?

Judy- I can't remember the chairs outside the Divi dive shop, but it sounds like these from a very cool shop in Provincetown, on Cape Cod. Check 'em out at www.northernlightshammocks.com. Disclaimer: I am NOT involved with this company!

Judy, there is a place in Pawley's Island, South Carolina. I'm not sure of the email address but they are supposed to have great quality stuff.

PS. I miss you, Judy.

Miss you too Kelly, give us a call!!! Have bought from Pawley's Island, but this is more like the blanket chair on Kate's message. We'll keep looking, they're soooo comfy!

Judy, I have one. Michael gave it to me for my birthday years ago, and it is still in good shape! It's like this.

John, that nags Head Hammock arm chair rope swing looks beautiful AND comfortable! little pricey for me, but it looks really nice!

Becky, I've seen those at the fair, how do they hold up with weather?

Becky, You will find me in my "sky chair" most days around 2 pm or again during "Happy Hour". My chair is a faded red and is 7+ years old. It does get some direct sun during the mornings. I use it April thru October. I'm probably due for a new one next summer. :-)

Of course.....if I could resize photos properly, I'd show what a wonderful view we have. Here's a small photo without our sign (no advertising, right?!)

I was at a place that had these. But this is neither the time nor place for such a discussion. :-)
