yea the way that my house faces... its gay during the winter and early spring months the only part of my back yard that gets sun is the top of the fence. my yard dies every year and then comes back when there is sun.... plus the fact that I have an 100lbs female american bulldog... a 120lbs english lab and a golden retriever that would piss and run all over anything and everything that would possibly be back there.Ordering my light right now!!
