Still On the Patio
10/10/2016
As the temperatures drop, I have been wanting one of those groovy-looking patio heaters. You know the ones? Tall. Sleek. Attractive.
Because . . . I want to stay out on the patio, enjoying drinks and snacks and looking at the garden . . . in my flip flops . . . for as long as possible.
So I sent Tom to Lowes.
And he came back with a perfectly serviceable, function-over-form propane tank-top heater.
Not even a little bit attractive.
But you know what? It WORKS.
As the sun went down and the temperature dipped into the low 50s, Tom and I enjoyed our drinks and snacks and conversation on the patio. Without coats. Without blankets.
Comfortable.
Toasty.
Thanks, Mr. Heater!
Oh my gosh, I burst out laughing. I love it! Perhaps I need to send Steve on a similar task!! LOL

We love having a heater on the deck, it really extends the season. I'm glad you have one now!

We have the fake fire thingy but I have a feeling we may meet Mr. Heater soon! :-)

Oh my! How much fun is that! The weekend was a bit gloomy here so the deck was a no go. I'm hoping we can squeeze in some deck time this week. Could be a stretch tonight we have a frost warning!

Perfect! I've been thinking about getting a little heater for our porch...but I'll bet he wouldn't look as "hot" as yours ;-)
