Now that the warmer weather is here, I find myself sitting outside on my back patio at all times of the day. In the morning, I may drink coffee and skim magazines; in the afternoons, I often enjoy the outdoors while I work on my computer; at night after my daughter goes to bed, my husband and I play some gin rummy. This space is an extension of our home. I spend a lot of time there and enjoy it very much, but that doesn’t mean I want to break the bank while adding some special touches and design elements. Therefore, I came up with some DIY ideas to spruce up an outdoor space that are gentle on the pockets.
Improving your outdoor space essentially involves bringing your living room outside. You want it to be inviting, inspiring, and comfortable for you and your guests to have great conversation in a welcoming setting. Small changes, such as adding fresh flowers and potted plants, setting mood lighting, and incorporating accent pieces, can make a big difference in a small space like a patio, porch, or veranda.

From the earliest of times, people have communed around the campfire, telling tales and sharing personal stories. Gathering around the fire brings us together, and a backyard fire pit is the perfect spot to kick back and relax.
Fire pits provide ambiance, warmth, light, and a place to gather and entertain. It’s no wonder that they are high on homeowners’ wish lists. Basking in the glow of a beautiful fire can be romantic – enough that you might just opt for a staycation to watch those sparks fly.

The Temecula Police Department offers the VACATION HOUSE CHECK SERVICE to the residents of the City of Temecula. Members from the Community Action Patrol Team will conduct a cursory check of your residence on a regular basis while you are away on vacation or other business. You can download the Vacation House Check Request Form at www.cityoftemecula.org (search Vacation House Check Request Form and then print the PDF version of the form). The completed form can be brought to a police storefront. 

Governing documents state that “such containers shall be exposed to the view of neighboring lots only when set out for a reasonable period of time (not to exceed twelve hours before and after scheduled trash
collection hours).”  Garbage containers include dumpsters. Once removed, all refuse containers must be stored out of sight from public view.  Dumpsters have become an unsightly problem within the community, and create a potential liability for the homeowners that they belong to when left for extended periods of time.  Large dumpsters can create 'blind spots' for drivers when turning corners, or children on bicycles and skate boards.
