Indeed, when this house was built about 10 years ago, I wired it with
CAT5e with a couple of switches to add network access and multiple
"plugs" in a couple of places. Except for one room, that sort of wiring
is pretty much obsolete these days because my router broadcasts a pretty
strong wifi "N" and "G" signal throughout the house.


I am even running a Cat 5 out to our screen cage bump out

I already have one in the tiki bar on the other side. (running the MP3
player)


Interesting. We have a three level house and I can pick up a really
strong wi-fi signal anywhere in it and also outside on the deck or on
the patio, so there's no real need for hardwiring for network purposes.
We don't have a TV outdoors, but I have played my iTunes music library
over wi-fi outdoors while I am mowing the lawn, and movies on my laptop
while out on the deck.

I do admire your incorporation of the tree stumps.
