Waldo Flea Market chair.

Big Rocking Chair

This big rocking chair sits right outside the flea market and is one of the few that I have seen that allow climbing at your own risk. There is plenty of parking, and it does not require walking.

At the Waldo Flea Market. Awesome!

[Kristin, 08/09/2019]

Though it doesn't actually rock, this chair minimally meets our "If you fell off you'd get hurt" qualification for roadside chair landmark inclusion.

Giant Rocking Chair

There is a Jolly Green Giant-size rocking chair on the right of US 301 as you head south. It sits at Waldo's Flea and Farmer's Market.
