valley2, welcome to the DH message board.... glad you're writing as well as reading....

This is definitely the original and the best.... still, it went through a down period when folks would have posts deleted and find out they couldn't log on and such.... we survived that ugly period and we're back and life is good.

A shout out to all my Coffee Shop friends and especially ((((Mama K8))))!

Thanks Grins! Glad to finally be a part of the board! (I think I waited a little too long to join.)
Fanci, Florida isn't a bad place to be either! Smile Wish I was there enjoying the warmth. Although, this years winter here in Utah has been very mild and warmer than usual. We need more snow. Glad to see the mountains are getting some now.

I AGREE NjGal.....I visit the blogs periodically and I have to admit, I don't come here to the MBs as often as I use to. I find the MBs to be better organized and a better use of my time!

Hi Valley2...I like you have been lurking on the boards for YEARS!!! Probably since 2006. I became a member but would forget my Username and Password, and many times that prevented me from logging in and conversing. I too hate all of the spiteful and negative comments that are left regarding the winner....but I've learned that 'Haters R gonna hate...no matter what' Roll Eyes I look forward to reading your comments and welcome out of 'lurkville' Wink

Why I never joined until now, not sure, except for the fact that I don't like the nasty comments that others make on the msg board towards the winners. The usuals on here don't post those! Big Grin So, thanks for letting me tag along all these years! Wink

Mue, "wandering" off course would be ideal! Wink
I'm excited to finally see a HGTV DH in person! Even if I don't win, this is very high on my list of things to see/do! It looks like it's supposed to be a beautiful day when I go so lots of good light for pics!
Mom23kbs, thanks! Everytime I read a post from a lurker who decided to join, I was tempted. Glad you joined in too!
I just have to say that I personally like the mb better than the blog.
Nursejudy...I understand...completely, I love it too! Big Grin

The MB is the place to communicate with the dreamhome lovers how we feel and love certain aspects of the home, but I think I like the pictures on the blog. I guess they both have their place, but like to talk about the here.

It's been quite awhile since posting to this one. If the MB is taken out, I'll be finished with posting.

Our fishing trip was FANTASTIC!!!! And we'll be doing more of it. My hub had no idea how much fun I would have in fishing. He had trouble getting me off the lake on our last day. We had caught so many fish on the last day, it took HOURS to clean em before hauling them home. NO heads were kept. So that one dish...OUT!

happy trish is fishing Cool and I understand your feelings about this MB. They just never seemed to understand that the dreamers had their MB smokin' for more than a few years. Had they been smart? ;-) they could have had the first reality show with the 3 "chosen" threads we voted on lol. Heck I would have watched Eek
