Kissing lanais. No problem - plant the shrubs. By the way 90%% of those shrubs planted are against the covenants - no ARC approval. No barriers allowed and plants are to be less than 4 feets high with 5 foot clearance between each shrub - ask the ARC. Ignoring the rules infraction all is OK until the neighbor lights up.

Eating outside
 

Eating outside is really nice except when there is a smoker, and it only takes one cigarette. They allow smokers outside and that's the rules. So, that's why we don't eat outside much. The smoke stays with us for many hours.. :spoken:

You are making assumptions! I don't like exhaust fumes either.

When smoking was allowed inside bars and restaurants, we always ate outside. They made it so people can't smoke inside anymore and built great outside smoking bars, so now we always eat inside. We really do miss eating outdoors.

We eat outside on our screened lanai a lot, it is surprisingly comfortable with extra fans when it’s hot out. Restaurants ...almost always eat outside. I like to enjoy Fresh air

Humidity.
