The Calgarian fascination with patios

The citizens of this city have a fascination with patios at pubs. Not that that is so odd, just they hit the patio when it's 10C. The pubs also appear to heat the patios with these gas heater things. Isn't that a little like leaving your patio door open in fall to warm up the deck on your house? Does it even work?

People here also wear shorts when it's like 12C. The number of people I saw out yesterday walking around in shorts was amazing. Like hundreds of people. Perhaps because it's sunny here? And I must add that it's always sunny here. I'm sure after a while my life will start to resemble the movie Ground Hog Day; everyday will be sunny.
