To quote the Monkeys, "I'm a believer!" I would add them to next home if we would move.
Our bathroom had a sunroof in it already (we bought pre-owned), and I absolutely LOVE it. I'd love one in the kitchen.

We don't have a garage, we have a carport. The entire driveway including the carport surface is painted a pale grey-blue to coordinate with the house (it's not a perfect match but it doesn't clash either). It protects the concrete from the sun and other weather conditions.

Why so horrible in Massachusetts? Shoveling, equipment being brought in and out (lawn mowers etc), and salt from the tires of your car in the winter.
