Smoking outside in winter?

[tjhemp]

I smoke out on the patio and also in the garage in winter. Garage if I'm wanting to watch TV while smoking. On the patio I have one of the tall propane patio heaters that does quite a good job of keeping me warm. When the temps would drop down into the 20's I would also use a propane firepit to help. The patio heater didnt keep the lower half as warm. Now I made a heat deflector for the propane fire pit and it works amazing. I've been very comfortable in the teens with the heat deflector in use.

One of my old neighbors had what appeared to be a clear set of shower curtains he would use on his front porch. Turned out it was just heavy gauge transparent vinyl, and he would roll it up when not using it.

sounds ghetto fabulous

Now I made a heat deflector...

Good idea. That's using the ol' noodle


I'll smoke a bowl out in the pole barn if I have it heated up for some reason but I'm not going to brave the cold or burn a bunch of fuel just for the sake of smoking something. IMO winter is a good time to smoke less and give your system time to recover if need be. After all, it ain't good for you anyway.

Problem solved, no icy toes from now on.
