Leaky Roof & Cool Light Globe


So I'm sitting on the floor trying to install a door handle when the guy who was working with me kept going on about the cool looking globe on the enclosed porch light. I took a quick look and figured that he must of been raised in a barn if he never saw a frosted or blown glass light globe.

Come to find out..........the roof leaks water into the light fixture, cold weather made the water freeze and at some point the glass broke leaving a cool looking light globe.

(no idea if the light works or not)
