Do not believe the porch light was even on

Sunday we had dinner at our son's house. They had all been up late the night before so they wanted to go to bed early. We took the cue and said our I LOVE YOU's. I started up my new (used) car only to have all of the interior lights come on.

Okay. The lights are on; it is okay because it is night time and dark. But the lights did not go out. What to do? I wanted to get home because I, too, was tired. I asked Ed to read the car manual to see what the problem might be (other than the obvious - the lights would not shut off) and how to fix it. He pressed button after button in hopes it would solve the problem. No luck.

I drove all the way home (only about 12 miles or so) with all of the interior lights on. Once in our driveway, I sat out in the car searching for a solution. I decided to look at the manual myself and try to figure it out. I could not find the information I was looking for until I REALLLLY looked hard and basically read between the lines. I turned down a knob/switch and OMG the lights went out. Once I found it I was like "dah".

So, I do not believe "the porch light was even on" let alone "anyone being home".
