This is the chair that inmates built


No. Really.

Inmates built this chair.
While we were stationed at Nellis AFB, I worked at the Arts & Crafts Center.
Nellis was unique in that it also housed a prison.
The prisoners worked various jobs on base.
The Arts & Crafts Center "employed" 13 inmates.
I was personally responsible for 4.
They built this rocking chair for me when I was pregnant with Tyson.
Unfortunately, this chair has been all but ruined in the elements.
But it still makes a great rocket ship.
