The porch light 8/22/12

The light fixture I have on the front porch is a motion sensor light.  Since having the light fixture installed I just keep the light switch in the on position as there is no need to turn it on and off every day.

I'd taken the dogs down to Portland to take them to Aunt Marie's care facility.  Then afterwards, went over to Ken and Adele's.  Stayed there until about 9:30pm.  I got home right around 10pm.

First thing that I noticed when I pulled into the driveway was that the porch light did not turn on.  I didn't think much about it at the time, except that I wished I had a flashlight so I could see the lock.  I don't like finding the lock in the dark.  It didn't help that I was shackled by 2 dogs.

So when I finally got the door unlocked and open, I went to flip the light switch off, only to discover that the switch was in the off position.
