Many years ago, we let our garden designer talk us into a pergola over the garage entry. At the time, I had no idea what a "pergola" was. But according to his very creative plant designs, things grew along it and it really did look nice.
It also had three beautiful Halogen lamps to light up the garage apron.
Then, some years later, a very wet spring snowstorm tore the thing out of our garage walls. He was personally embarrassed, and promptly built us a new one. But along with the new came new lights - the dreaded MR8s. They are marvels of tiny Halogen spotlights, as long as you can tolerate one burning out, say every week or two. You, of course, cannot find these at the local hardware store.
I order them by the dozen on the web - actually I have only 2 left - but I fear a burnout coming on.
Give me incandescent.
