That is good. Hopefully it doesn't get too bad in the summer. We have our deck on the west side of our house and on summer evenings it is almost too hot to sit out there. I really wish I would have had the money to have them build a canopy when they built the deck. I screwed up on that one!

I hope not either! Most of our windows face North and East so we should escape most of the peak sunshine in spring/summer.
Have you considered one of these?

We’re thinking about having one installed over the deck.
Oh yeah, you are going to be perfect! Our bedroom is on the East side of the house, so we can't escape the morning no matter how hard we try sometimes! I have looked at those, but I am not sure there is enough of a header above our sliding door to actually install it.
I hope so! The utility bill history doesn't look too crazy in the summer for the property. I think we'll end up doing a retractable awning or a pergola.
That is cool. We used to have a pergola on our deck before the tree branch fell and crushed it. I'm not sure it made a difference inside the house, but it definitely made it a bit cooler on the deck.
