Cedar pergola with 4 posts, bases surrounded by stone (and a hidden running monk) and with concrete tops perfect for holding glasses/plates while entertaining. The top is a smoky polycarbonate which lets in enough filtered light to bring the temp down. A plumbing rod between the planks holds the outdoor drapery. Lighting is strung amid the top planks. Built by my husband and 10 year old daughter.
