May 2011: Your Abode

What are you doing sitting on that couch? What’s with the overstuffed chair? who do you think you are, parking yourself at the dining room table? Get outside, for crying out loud! It’s springtime in Central Virginia, and it demands to be enjoyed. You can still sit down, we promise. And with one of these locally-sourced seats, you can sit in style too.
