Patio heaters, fire pits

We have two outdoor gas starter fireplaces which make lighting very simple. When we put in a pergola (with a plexiglass roof over the structure), we also had a gas line run so we could put in an overhead gas heater. That runs with an on/off switch and also is very simple to use, but a bit more costly to install because of the gas line. We also have a couple pole heaters we can move around, which work very well. My stepfather got them for us at the military store, but Costco also carries them. They were about $200. each. Finally, we had curtains made of sunbrella with velcro closures to hang from the pergola, since we live near the coast in San Diego and it can be very breezy at times. We LOVE sitting outside in the cool evenings. For those of you who don’t know, coastal California has very cool evenings most of the time.
