At my previous house I had built a really nice screened in gazebo (20 feet long, 16 wide) and in that gazebo I installed a screen and projector, with the idea that I would be able to watch movies outside on nice summer nights. The only problem with my plan was the late summer sunsets. At the solstice the sun doesn’t set until almost 9:30, ad it doesn’t get really dark until almost 10. Since a projector requires darkness it was no good – 10:00 is bedtime (yes, I’m old).
Back in the 60s on Friday nights in the summer my dad would put up a big screen in the empty lot near our house and show movies. Kids and parents would come from blocks away with their lawn chairs to sit and watch. One particular Friday my father showed the original War of the Worlds movie. Never saw so many scared people looking up at the sky when it was over.
