  2. Marie Miller, your comments about the New Port Aquarium make it interesting for sure. The remark about bizarre life forms made me think of some of the characters in the Design Star challenges! I wouldn't mind a sleepover there (no, not on the set of Design Star, but the Aquarium!) However, I'd have two requirements: they'd have to put the sharks to sleep first (never know—those clever creatures might sneak out of the tank during the night) and second, I'd have to have a wide-screen TV to watch HGTV before turning out the lights.

    Lynn Coggin, I see the white male, "nice guy" similarity between David and Dan, but can't fault them for that. I think HGTV is savvy enough to put a program together that would differentiate them, and their diverse talents, for most viewers. I personally don't buy the argument that Antonio's "originality" (the term some folks apparently use for an abrasive and domineering personality) is a draw to the majority of HGTV viewers, and trying to "blur" the distinction between DIY's and HGTV's viewer demographics is a longer term blunder. Attracting a few hundred new viewers over from DIY, while losing many thousands of current and potential HGTV viewers is a short-sighted business decision. But whatever will be, will be, and as always, we all have a choice as to who we allow in our homes and on our TV screens.

    I have to get back over to the Dream Home blog and answer a question of Marie's. Happy Dreaming, pardners.

  4. Marie, I don't know where you find your tips, but they are great! Keep up the good work!

  5. Lynn Coggin, you are so devoted to HGTV! You make the best of every situation. badgerbadgerbadger, anything to help a fellow blogger.

    Lynn Coggin, you Rock!

  6. I'd like to start by congratulating Dan Vickery for all of his incredibly hard work, and his well deserved success in the Design Star Season 4 Challenge. Go Dan, Go Portland, Go Oregon, and go Design Star! Until September 15, don't forget to rock the vote for Dan as fan fave.

    Now, back to the equally exciting Pinehills Green Home…and the beat goes on. How are the Coffeys doing in Port St Lucie? What is GAIL up to these days?

    Remember, Green Home dreamers, MARY is going to be letting out all of the 2010 GH secrets VERY slowly. She's not going to want to overwhelm us, especially with so much activity at the Dream Home site these days. The Turquoise Trail is really beginning to shine now that the DH has its color coat. Dream Cam, Green Cam, and DIY Blog Cabin—my head is spinning with architectural fantasies.
