Now this is just like old times when we were kids. We usually end up here after a barbeque talking about the good old days watching the fire and listening to the fountains. There is nothing like a real fire to keep it real and keep a guy grounded.
Fire pits in patio landscapes are handy for open fire grilling and dutch oven cooking too. With all those fire restrictions because of drought, we haven't been able to do this when we're camping, so we have dutch oven parties now in the back yard.

Maybe consider whether or not you want to have a garden when you think of backyard-landscaping-ideas. Gardening can help a person relax, and its also fun. With a garden you can enjoy better tasting fresh vegetables for less money and the best thing is you get to watch them grow. Learn how to grow parsnips, tomatoes, beets, or even spinach and swiss chard and feel less dependent on the grocery stores.
