I realize my latest addition is tiki sacrilege, but with the TV in the bar I don't miss any of the game while making another drink.

I will likely follow the lead of others here on TC and make a facade to cover it when not in use and/or trim it out to make it blend a little better with the other decor.

I also moved an old stereo and a pair of speakers to the bar. After buying a couple different outdoor speakers and being unhappy with how they sounded I returned them and re-purposed some existing stereo equipment I had in storage. This included a powered sub-woofer which really filled in the outdoor speakers which are sorely lacking in the low end. These additions combined with the existing speakers mounted under the deck which is opposite the bar really fills the entire area with good sound without being too loud. The stereo is connected to the TV and also an Air Port Express so that I can stream music from the computer. It was nice to find another use for everything and clean out a closet in the house.
