Default Newbie needs plans for Adirondack chair

I made this one from Wood Magazine: http://www.woodstore.net/adch.html. It
was pretty well received by SWMBO. I didn't do the two-tone thing, I made
mine out of cedar, left it a natural color with 3 coats of Sikken's Cetol on
it. I don't think it looked ugly. The materials were (AFAIR) entirely 2x6
and 1x6 regular stock from Home Depot. I don't think I had to use my
bandsaw to thin down any material; I think it was designed to use regular
stock thickness on purpose.

Anyway, my $0.02. I can post pictures in the
alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking newsgroup if you want to see what it
looked like. I can't tell you how long it took to make, but it was longer
than I'd like. However, it wasn't exactly rocket science.

I am new to this group and really just starting to get interested in
woodworking. Does anyone know of some simple yet complete plans for an
adirondack chair. So far the best bet seems to be a chair called, "Jake's
Chair." Any suggestions/advice for a newbie???
