This is looking back from the West towards my roofed over Patio. It has 4 sky lights in it so as to allow sun into my LR and DR where I keep most of my plants for the winter.

My Patio is where I "live". I pot there, repot there, rest there on my porch swing (not too visible), grill there, eat there, have a couple of cold beers there and, in 2 weeks, hold my HUGE Summer Solstice cookout there--and in the back yard under the trees--in 2 weeks. I will be hosting about 50 people that Saturday! Haven't done much prep. yet. Gotta get moving!

Just behind the AC unit is a 4-steps down entrance into my lower level of the house. Ther is another level below that. I have a 4-level split house.
