I also like your "deck" chairs in the snow. Mine came off the Queen Mary and they are pretty comfortable even without a cushion. Unfortunately, here in the U.S. sunny south, the deck is only fully useable thirty or forty days a year between heat, mosquitoes, rain, and winter chills. Thanks for showing us all a peak into your world.
