The penetration under the house is in the crawl. I usually squirt
some caulk or stuff a bit of fiberglass into the holes. The crawl is
by no means completely sealed now.

Your list of items basically captures what I have but there is also
house fixtures on the same switches. On the house walls where the
deck is there are 6 wall mounted light fixtures. There are no
additional switches, in the house a 3 way and a 4 way, in the garage a
3 way. In the picture you can see a couple of the wall fixtures on
the windows. It's a lake house, that's why the "back" has all the
windows and the ext doors enter form the sides.

Truth be told I am still installing the garage feeder system. I do
have the conduit and wires run and a box put up. I still need to
install ground rods at the garage. It's 2 now isn't it? That seems
pointless to me. Perhaps it's to provide redundancy after the
satellite tv guy disconnects one of them, yukyuk.
