above: I mentioned the shade structure we have over the patio, you can see here how simple it is, yet it reduces the sun exposure on the back of the house, thereby reducing the temperature inside the house.

Rick! The Outdoor living space looks wonderful. That shade structure is perfect!
The 100+ temps don't bother us either, although the bugs can be an issue some seasons.
Cool -in all senses of the word! Helping to cool the inside of the house, making the exterior more palatable too plus, looking really snazzy too. I love the chiminea you have too -wish I had an outdoor area where we could have something useful and pretty like that. Maybe someday.
i think i would have quite an adjustment to make as extreme heat makes me wilt. though i know it's not nearly so humid so maybe i'd find that more tolerable than the east coast 95 degree/95% humidity days.
in any even it looks like a lovely and relaxing space.
Lovely Structure, Rick, and a BEAUTIFUL Backyard! Your "LADY OF THE PATIO" is fine! And I love that Clay Pot with the Cactus & Sun on it...!
but it's a dry heat! ha ha ha

Last summer my son rented two condos at La Quinta, I have to say, I couldn't take the heat! Jumping into the pool was like jumping into a very hot bathtub! I love the desert but can't hack it from May to October. (I am a wimp)
Your patio is lovely and the little statue is a fine addition.
I certainly did enjoy stopping by! Also love the pergola!
Your patio is beautiful!! We could sure use a pergola like that. Mr. kenju would really like your Lady.
I learned something new today- I had no idea that it is called a pergola! Thanks all!
Imma be going to Palm Springs so very soon.
I can feel it.
I'm soooo jealous! 360 days of sunny weather! Our winters here are longer than our summers! How I long for some nice outdoor living that lasts longer than two months!!
Love the outdoor furnishings you've got! Soooo jealous!
