Time for the summer movie festival, backyard fun

For the last 7-8 years I have slowly work on our backyard, for a place of relaxation and enjoyment. My wife likes to garden, while I enjoy the best theater experience.

    When the bugs come out I have 8 Centinela candles to keep the bugs at bay, I light them up about a hour before the movie starts

    I agree! Having my rack on wheels makes it much easier to move from the garage and the Mackie speakers and Rockville sub do a great job! Still looking to get at least one more Rockville just because…

    I have a setup in my patio for year round. Also have retractable shades to keep the skeeters out during Summer. I use the shades as screen for the projector.

    Makes for great family night.
