Using Umbrellas
When we go fishing or are at an outside event we always have an umbrella to keep as much light out of Lindsay’s face as possible. Her eyes are sensitive to light and some of the medications she is on make her prone to sunburn and heat exhaustion, possibly even heat stroke.
We have a small Radio Flyer clip on umbrella and have made an umbrella holder for a standard size umbrella that will adjust where ever we want it to better block the light and provide shade. I created an adjustable umbrella holder out of plastic pipe that attaches to the 1/2” rod and swivel clamps. It adjusts to any angle and height for your chair. When possible, we also take a large patio umbrella. We just drive a stake in the ground and mount the patio umbrella over the stake for more complete shade.
