Today a heat wave it was only -10 this morning WooHoo! I am ready for Idaho!

I would love to have one of these Chicken or goose coops:>) Tue, 17 Feb 2015 13:29:30 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/02/05/flooring-worth-adoring-gray-t-choice-voters/#IDComment951286952 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/02/05/flooring-worth-adoring-gray-t-choice-voters/#IDComment950564714 Hi LL! Happy Valentine's Day! Well we are deluged with snow and more snow, plus below zero temps:<( and that is not windchill temps-we are talking -10-15 degrees with windchills of -25 or lower:<( We are actually below on our average snow levels-BooHoo! I will be glad when winter is over. But that said I am prepared now for living in the Idaho Rockies! and ready too! I agree with what you are saying about the urban looks and I wish for some more rustic tones. I faith in the decorators and I know all will turn out great! I am happy so far with how the voting is going-because it pretty much matches my votes,LOL! Hope all is well with you and are surviving the winter?:>) Take care LL!

Yes, very scary how close to home all this crime is coming. I live in Central NY and we have at least one break in with 2 miles of our home. In years past this was not the case. Even more scary when you are in the home at the time of the break ins-does not seem to stop them? I still rely on good Ole dog power:>) Alarms are good but give me a good ole dog. I have talked with the police where I live at the crime conferences and generally people that have dogs are not broken into. The criminals move to an easier target. Sort of like locking your car door-they will break into the unlocked cars first. Be safe and watchful. Thanks for your updates with using the cam. I do not have very good luck viewing. I can see some things but is very difficult to navigate-so I rely on your and others sightings and updates:>) Thu, 12 Feb 2015 14:15:38 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/02/05/flooring-worth-adoring-gray-t-choice-voters/#IDComment949991725 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/02/05/flooring-worth-adoring-gray-t-choice-voters/#IDComment949218818 I am way behind this year!:<( I just voted for this round and I viewed what is winning. I am in line with what has so far been chosen. I really think from the voting that most of us are pretty traditional and want to keep in line with the woodsy feel of this beautiful area and take in the lake as much as possible. I know I do not mind some modern designs/touches and decorating but I love the feel of nature and modern things can be done in line with that. I am glad to see the solid background for the kitchen-I think subway tiles have been over done and I think if they keep similar to the example the solid would look more like the area of this home? I am also glad the stone is winning for the fireplaces-that is so appropriate to this area. Just what is in order for a big fire to sit and view the lake, with my glass of brandy:>) This is going to be another beauty! Can't wait:>) :po.0 Mon, 9 Feb 2015 17:10:13 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/02/05/flooring-worth-adoring-gray-t-choice-voters/#IDComment949218818 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2015/01/29/traditional-touches-at-hgtv-dream-home-2015/#IDComment947193185 SandyLA Thanks so much! I should have know that DB would post that-I should have read through. Those were some impressive pics-but looks better than some places up the coast. I will assume all is well at the Dream Home:>) Thanks Mon, 2 Feb 2015 13:22:24 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2015/01/29/traditional-touches-at-hgtv-dream-home-2015/#IDComment947193185 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2015/01/29/traditional-touches-at-hgtv-dream-home-2015/#IDComment946842327 Sorry not sure what you are saying? Is there a link to something about the storm? I checked? Sun, 1 Feb 2015 18:53:15 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2015/01/29/traditional-touches-at-hgtv-dream-home-2015/#IDComment946842327 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2015/01/29/traditional-touches-at-hgtv-dream-home-2015/#IDComment946517966 I have been entering everyday for this gem of a home and my dream home. With the terrible storms that have hit recently to the Northeast coast I have been wondering how the Dream Home weathered the storms and sea surges??? I hope all is well? This storm certainly would be a good test of the home.

I am for an enclosed shower-level with the rest of the floor for easy handicap access-also big enough for a wheelchair. I live in a high mineral level in the water area and they have such good products now on the market that cleaning glass is really not an issue if you keep up on it and do not let it go to build up. Same with anything you clean. Never let dirt, etc. build up-always easier to tackle it right away. The heat in the floor will be so very welcome for those cold Idaho winters:>) Sat, 24 Jan 2015 13:51:02 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/01/20/peoples-choice-round-two-vote-for-master-suite-details/#IDComment944378954 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/01/20/peoples-choice-round-two-vote-for-master-suite-details/#IDComment944377279 Every Blog Cabin this issue comes up. Everyone seems to want a pantry-for sure! and a root cellar or a wine cellar. The pantry is usually always mentioned if not by someone it will be me. I lived in Idaho briefly and you are right it is nothing to travel great distances to gather groceries and supplies. You usually don't do it as often-so you need storage and esp. in the winter when you may not be able to travel-you will need to stock up on everything. Pantry!, Pantry!, Pantry! please;)o.0<3by Sat, 24 Jan 2015 13:42:53 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/01/20/peoples-choice-round-two-vote-for-master-suite-details/#IDComment944377279 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2015/01/20/peoples-choice-round-two-vote-for-master-suite-details/#IDComment944375744 Kitt I like your ideas and the idea that of others that desire Blog Cabin to go back to the cabin re-do's. I am intrigued by all the new things they can do with log cabins and I love all the history. Good idea!

I noticed your comment the other day and since your comment I think it has changed the vote. Hopefully because they got what you said. Ex: the bed with the drawers underneath was lagging behind-it is now in front. I agree with other comments that you cannot have to much storage the more the better.

Great Christmas gift. It looks so beautiful where this home is situated:>) Can't wait to see this build.

You have been through a lot between your surgeries and your losses of family. I know God will bring you through this hard time with a renewed strength. I hope the blog can bring some joy to you.

It will keep us busy until we get another bit of info about the house:>) I only remember "shoe" Pharmacist that is interesting? :>) Thu, 4 Dec 2014 16:12:02 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2014/12/01/blog-cabin-2015-fall-color-in-coeur-dalene/#IDComment924225805 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2014/12/01/blog-cabin-2015-fall-color-in-coeur-dalene/#IDComment924178232 Clive Up here in Central NY we have the same with 4 seasons of weather in a day. I have a young dog and he was so confused one day with our weather because as you say we went from one season to the next. Everytime I let him out he had another season-very funny to watch his reactions. He loved the snow-he did not remember it from last year. Wait till he really sees our snow-he has no idea what he is in store for-LOL!
