Patio upgrade

Hungry Joe

New for 2015, I upgraded the patio TV this year. I just wish the Phillies were worth watching.

Don't go and smash that thing when Tebow makes his inaugural appearance with the Eagles.

I see you have a solid rain proof roof.  That is how all of my patio roofs have been.  I like to be able to sit outside during the rain and be able to stay dry.  Those open lattice patio covers just don't do it for me.

Yes!

Personally I'm not a fan of vertically hung tvs.  I like mine horizontal.

This is the man cave patio. We spend most of the summer here.

I have no idea what they are doing.  I'm being patient. Being from South jersey I have to be an eagles fan.

Nice, where are you located? I want an outdoor TV. For now I just stream Tivo to my tablet and phone when outside.

I'm near Hammonton.

I built an enclosure and have an all weather cover that you can see on the chairs under the TV. So far no problems but I do also have the roof over head.

I've had a TV out here for the last 4 years but got tired of not being able to see it when the sun was bright. This is a 40" Vizio  I picked up at Costco for $330 and so far it looks great.

Yes the badminton racket is for the carpenter bee's and hornets. The mallet next to the racket is for the gong, yes I have a gong.

The racket is quite entertaining actually. Carpenter bees make the best sound when hit. Other then them I leave most of the bees alone unless they try to nest under the roof.
