I agree - seems like most homes in TV are dark unless one adds a tube. Our lanai faces east, which we love; however, our home is dark because the lanai basically shades it - while the sun is passing over the south side has no windows which actually helps to keep the house cooler. Then the front western exposure gets light, but there is an overhang that also shades the house. So I guess a solar tube is the only way to "light up my life". In the heat of the summer (which lasts 6 months) you really don't want your house flooded with light - the idea is to keep it dark and cool!
