I like to sit on my porch and read during the summer in mornings. Afternoons I'm in direct sunlight and it's just too hot for that. I keep a very light portable folding chair I can carry into the shade to read. We have a gazebo but people smoke there so I haven't used that although for health reasons most of them have quit so I might be able to read there this coming summer.
I really love sitting outside to read when I can. When I was younger I used to walk to the park and sit under a tree to read, kind of like the guy on the startup screen on the Kindle. I did that about every other weekend for decades.
About 25 years ago I took a trip to Grand Canyon and I remember spending an afternoon sitting on the grass right on the edge of the canyon with my feet hanging over the side listening to an audiobook. The book was Alan Drury's "Advise and Consent".
