Shady Patio

The daily temperatures here in The Valley continue to rise as winter is ending and the sun can be pretty intense. Even with the awning extended, our patio is partially in the sun much of the day and a "Shady Patio" would be really nice. So we decided to treat ourselves to a joint Valentines Day gift of a patio sun shade.

I made a trip to the big Flea Market down the road and negotiated for a sunscreen. I ordered one 18' x 6' and picked a light green color. The seamstress said it would be ready in 45 minutes. I wandered around the Flea Market for a half hour until my sunscreen was ready, then returned to "The Bus" to install it.

















Wonderful! We have a "Shady Patio" all day long. Happy Valentines Day!
