Words Cannot Adequately Described...Just How Awesome These Were


 We had an hour or so to kill before we picked up our youngest from school, so we stopped by the Logan Deseret Industries, the major thrift store chain prevalent in our state. After wandering around for a bit, my wife pointed to a couch/chair combo that was, in a word, spectacular.

Someone, somewhere would die for them.

They were covered with red vinyl, with carved wood accents. The chair was $25, the couch $55. Even though they were amazing, there's no way we could have bought them. We have no place to put them. But, if someone out there were designing a space in retro 60s style, these would be perfect.

I sat down on the couch. Let's just say, it wasn't as comfortable as it is stylish. Perhaps, more than half a century ago, they were wonderful to sit on and lay down on. If so, time has not been kind. They weren't the worst thing I've sat on and we'll leave it at that.

If you are one of those people looking for just such a couch/chair combo, you'd better head to the Logan D.I. and quick. Who knows how many people are looking for something like this for their collection?
