A lot of the work in the past two weeks has been positioning and building curbs for skylights, and finishing the window wells - so no roof shingles yet!
These window wells are built to last with heavy duty braces attached to the concrete walls!
The temptation with renovations is to add things "While we're at it...". I have tried to resist many of these, but truthfully, some of them just make sense! One of these while-we're-at-its was to add a variation on skylights called solar tubes or light tubes in a couple of dark corridors and one bathroom that has no windows. The bathroom in the accompanying picture has no windows, and the lights are off - that's solar tube light you see coming in through that circle in the ceiling!

wow - I'm impressed with the solar effect! Is the solar energy stored to provide light at the flick of a switch also?
No - just purely transmission of light along the tube.
