Welcome to the PatioandYards.com Blog, although as I write
this, my first blog post, I know that we have no followers as of this date and
that is okay. As in the movie Field of
Dreams, I believe the premise of, “If you build it they will come”, will hold
true. So here you are reading our first
blog and for this I thank you.
Now let me introduce ourselves. I go by the name of Captain
Bob and I, along 1st mate Cathy (who also doubles as my soul mate
and wife) started an Internet retail sales business, way back in the year 2000.
We started in our basement and have as of this month finally moved the business
out of the house to an actual honest to goodness office building and at the
same time have opened our newest website, PatioandYards.com complete with a new
Facebook page, a new Twitter account and of course this Blog!
Although we do sell furniture you may see on this blog, and
on our Home page that all profits from this web site go to the restoration of
an all wooden 1968 Egg Harbor cabin cruiser, and throughout the future writings
in this blog, I will keep our followers up to date on the progress of the
restoration. Egg Harbor boats,
manufactured in Egg Harbor, NJ have a small but loyal following of “Egg Owners”
as we like to refer to ourselves. My Egg’s name is Sinbad and we have owned her
for about five years, having bought her from her previous owner, a real
character, a good friend, and another Captain Bob, who just recently passed
away. In future blogs, I will tell some great Captain Bob tales and stories.
In order to fund the restoration of Sinbad, of course we
must sell our wares and so in each blog we will highlight some of our products,
and offer discounts for those who follow our blogging. When we first started selling online, our
first website sold only PVC Pipe Furniture, once a long time ago referred to as
plumbing pipe furniture. So this month
we will start with PVC Furniture.
PVC furniture is made differently today than when plumbers
first put together the medium of their trade, making furniture for their
families. PVC furniture today is a niche product that has a loyal following. We
see customers that have had their furniture for over 20 years and they say it
still looks brand new except for the cushions and slings which for the past 13
years we have been replacing for these customers. This furniture is made with
furniture grade PVC that is chip resistant and is imbedded with UV stabilizers
for long lasting good looks. Why do
people like this furniture? It is in expensive compared to any other furniture
out on the market today, yet it has casual chic appeal. It’s fun furniture.
Late winter and early spring is the best time to prepare for
those wonderful days outdoors. Now is the time to replace cushions and slings
or possibly purchase a new outdoor set of PVC Pipe Furniture. We represent
Casualine Furniture, the leader for the past 40 years in producing PVC
Furniture. We will not be under sold. So for the month of February, we are
offering a 15% discount on all PVC Furniture that you will find in “For Your
Patio / PVC Furniture” Use Coupon Code- pvc15feb
