Your Garden Friend - Heaters And Umbrellas
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Kenny_G_Leichester]Kenny G Leichester

Are you tired of the cold winter days where you are forced to spend all your waking moments indoors? When I was a kid, my days were spent playing at the patio with my brother. We would run around chasing each other while enjoying the hot morning sun. However, when the clouds began to arrive, our days will be spoilt as mum would be screaming at the top of her voice - "JO AND JER, COME IN RIGHT NOW. RAINING AH!" The remaining hours will be filled with prayers and mindless staring at the sky outside through the living room window. We will also be singing "Rain, rain, go away. Come again another day..."

Keeping your garden clean and tidy is not only crucial for making a good first impression but also to ensure the safety of your children when they play there. It is good for children to get fresh air by playing outdoors but you wouldn't want them to play in places where the child is vulnerable to dangerous objects such as pieces of broken glass or harmful creatures like snakes.

Your patio should be kept clean and tidy, not only for your children to play in but also it's a great place to hold a tea party. Use your imagination and picturesque an afternoon of fun spent at the comfort of your own garden; catching up with friends whilst enjoying the afternoon sun. You'd be amazed that you don't have to drive far to the countryside in order to enjoy the great outdoor. However, if your party suddenly stops due to a sudden downpour, you might be facing the situation whereby your guest will run to your living room on their muddy feet. At the end of the day, you will end up with a dirty living room and patio.

Scenario such as this one can be avoided if you have a patio umbrella. At the mention of patio umbrella, a vision of a bulky wood table with a big yellow umbrella might come into mind and you can't stand the thought of it sitting at your garden. No fear, patio umbrellas don't have to come equipped with those tables anymore. Today's version of patio umbrella is much more enhanced than it was years ago. They are capable of standing without the aid of the table. The patio umbrellas, made with stronger materials are much lighter and are practical to move about.

Another feature that you would love about patio umbrellas of today is the fact that they are adjustable. So if, you're spending the whole day outside, you can avoid the direct sun whether it's in the east or west. You sun shy friends or relatives will thank you for it too! Now that you have a patio umbrella in your garden, don't forget to experience new things that you have not been able to do in your garden before this like having a cup of hot chocolate on a snowy winter afternoon. Protected under the patio umbrella, all you need to worry about now is making sure you don't stay out too long immersed in the beautiful scenery!

It is a disappointment that you have to leave your garden when you are fully engrossed at watching how beautiful it is when it snows. You can eliminate your frustration too by investing in a patio heater. You can count on patio heaters to warm up the surrounding when you need to, though don't expect it to turn your winter days into summer ones. However, be sure to purchase a heater that does not require it to be connected to the electric plug because you wouldn't want any one to trip on them would you?

Why limit your time in your precious garden when you can enjoy it anytime you want with the help of patio umbrellas and heater.
