Last winter, thanks in area to going stir crazy from the pandemic, our wife and I assembled a cool outdoor theater in our backyard. Every one of us already had a nice firepit and a resting area, so both of us added a 10 by 15 foot screen along the security fence, and brought out a digital projector to show motion pictures in the fantastic outdoors. It was a immense hit, and both of us were out there several afternoons a week through the winter, seeing fave motion pictures in front of a roaring fire. When the weather changed, so did motion picture afternoons, because although there was a source of heating, that firepit was useless against tepid weather. If both of us wanted to keep seeing motion pictures under the stars ,we would need some kind of cooling plan to keep us comfortable. It turns out there is no cheap and simple cooling equivalent to the fire pit, all the possible solutions are high tech and actually pricey. There are portable a/cs, and some actually enjoyable ones, but resting one outside is next to useless; You would basically have to kneel right on top of the air vents just to guess the cooling, because it would dissipate in the open air so abruptly. It easily sucked to not use the motion picture screen for the hottest area of the summer, but both of us had no option but to stay inside with the air conditioning. It is so strenuous to savor a motion picture while you are perspiring in 95 degree weather and miserable humidity, so we’ll just have to wait until the weather starts cooling off naturally.
