    The Washington Post

    Your back yard is beautifully furnished, but it’s freezing out there in the evening.

    A new product provides an alternative to warming your hands by the fire pit or using one of those industrial mushroom-shaped patio heaters: The Endless Summer electric patio heater is disguised as a decorative lamp.

    “Nobody wants a huge heater to become a centerpiece of their back yard,” says Bud Harris, a manager at Blue Rhino Global Sourcing, the manufacturer of Endless Summer. “This becomes an accent piece.”

    The heaters, available in floor or table size, give off a 12-foot circle of warmth using radiant-heat technology. They are weather-resistant and turn off automatically if tilted. Finishes include cherry wood, bronze and ivory.

    More information at bluerhino.com. The heaters, priced at $179 to $249, should be at Lowe’s stores in July.

    With a little driving, it's possible to attend fireworks displays on three consecutive nights this holiday weekend. How many such shows is enough for you?
    One such show per year is enough for me
    Two displays would make for a fabulous 4th
    Three would be a pyrotechnic dream come true
    I have no interest in fighting the crowds to get a stiff neck
