Cheaper than chicken.. :wink:

How about installing a drop down bamboo shade?
They come 96" across for patios, weather resistance. I think ours was about $30 from home depot.

Do you have a smoker? If not use your grill! Place aluminum foil under the coals so you can throw all of it away when you are done...You really don. and put some limburgher cheese on the coals. I HIGHLY reccommend, shutting all of your doors and windows, so you don't recieve any of the smoke or smell..... That should hush them up for a bit...
Roll with the punches, play all of your hunches...come what may...

I like the grill ideas :o unfortunately there is no grilling within 10 ft of any building due to the heat destroying the siding. I nonchalantly asked him this evening if this goes on throughout the summer with residents asking him questions and the communication between the pool deck and his deck and he just as nonchalantly stated "my work here is never done" :x . This obviously has been going on for years, I haven't discussed it with the wife yet but if anyone is interested in a 3bdrm 1 1/2 bath condo a few blocks from the beach with a pool. Asking low 3s :D

I'm worried about your bug problem. Maybe you should try some of these candles? ;)

I would approach the upstairs neighbors during a non-stressful moment in an empathetic and non-threatening manner. Then I would politely and cordially relate my feelings in regard to their behavior and your expectations of privacy.

Hey if you've got your radio out there, when someone asks him a question, turn the music up real loud. Drown them out. If they can't hear each other, maybe they'll stop.

Or next time someone starts talking to him, and he talks back, I'd look up and say "do you think you could walk down there? I'm sure you do not want me to hear the details of your conversation, coupled with the fact that I'm enjoying some much needed peace and quiet."

Sit on your deck in the nude.

Drink copious amounts of alcohol and vomit on fence people.

When fence people yell up to the people above you, answer them.

Drink copious amounts of alcohol and pee on fence people.

Moon fence people.

I think you see the pattern here. 8) :lol: :lol: :lol:

ummmmm....maybe go up and introduce yourself and then just talk to them about how it bothers you that they do this...Its what I teach the kiddies at college to do when their neighbors are annoying....its called community standards....they probably don't in all honesty KNOW that they are bothering you if you haven't said anything...
There's this one particular harbor.....
