Despitelamentingthe fact that summertime ’s almost over , I can look back on these last few months and know that this has been an incredible season … fromYosemitetoBajatoFlorence Lakeand everywhere in between , I ’ve kayaked and surfed and hike and camp out my heart out . But it was n’t all activeness and dangerous undertaking … There were the placid present moment too , the one where I just sat back and lease it all soak in .
Those moments of reflection ( il dolce far niente , the sweetness of doing nothing ) allowed me to truly appreciate where I was , who I was with , and what I was doing . ( The next time you feel like your life history is a whirlwind , take a moment to trip up your breath and do a piffling something for yourself — even when that something is really nothing . )
After a long twenty-four hour period of risky venture ( and sometimes even before all the hubbub ) , I always look forward to putting my human foot up and enjoying the pleasant loafing . And for one lucky winner , TravelChair and I have teamed up to give away one of their Lounge Lizards , which will make putting your feet up that much more pleasant too !
TheLounge Lizardis a zero - gravity chairman that take a shit you experience almost weightless when you ’re lie in it . Lean back , set the ignition lock , and experience all the focus and tension of the day melt away . It ’s the air equivalent of putting a pile of pillow under your feet .
After a 16 - geographical mile hike in the Sierra , this was me the next morning …
The Lounge Lizard also makes a bully camp chair . It ’ll make you the envy of all your backcountry buddies . I know it does n’t see like a camp president , or even something that you haul down to Baja with you , but if it folds , I view it a camp hot seat !
The whole thing folds up flat into a tidy 20 - hammering software program ( admittedly , a much easier deal with the separate hold bag ) . It ’s made with a breathable , quick - drying , mold - resistant mesh that you may hose down down after drag it through the dirt to lounge by the sea . And on those raging summertime days , you wo n’t get sweaty back syndrome from a stuffy behind . ( This is an especially estimable feature when your protagonist keep stealing your chair . )
After a whole summer of schlepping it from car to ingroup ( and evenboat to camp ) , the Lounge Lizard has make up to the abuse and still has many , many more summers ( and fall , and winter , and springs ) ofil dolce far nienteahead .
Even if you ’re not the bivouacking character , this electric chair would feel right on at home in the garden or by the pool . In fact , when I first got my Lounge Lizard , I but took it out of the corner and set up it up in my living room . I rouse up some 20 minute of arc subsequently , realise that I had fall asleep while test it out ! Take it from a individual who never naps — it reallyisthat comfortable .
I mean , does this pictorial matter need any explanation ?
