Our house, since we moved into it, has been a dark stain on an otherwise bright street. We have a streetlight out front which lights the sidewalk, and two lights on a timer beside the door, but other than that, our property was darker than an alley in Calcutta. Yesterday evening I got a spotlight installed on the east wall, which means that you can actually find your way to the front door from your car without tripping over the curb. Hopefully this will also make the house look like somebody lives here, as opposed to strangers using the driveway for parking and wandering down to Bar for a drink.
