Yesterday I took apart the lamp you see in the first pic and made what you see in the second. I used the aluminum shields off of some work lamps I bought a Lowe's. These fit the theme of the backyard so much more.

    i'll always be proud of my contribution of recommending that the flashing be installed top to bottom instead of side to side.........when you think about it, I probably have as much vested in the back yard as you do........shhhhhhh.......

    Yeah, I liked the old design too but they did not match the rest of the yards theme so I had to change them to fit in better.
