I was interested to see that the guy who was chosen to design the makeover was the only one who had incorporated a single Tiki in his proposal. The fella that had the work done got a great deal for his $20,000. Where can I find a Television Network who will pay an architect to come work for me for free!?!

It was bad enough on the tv, I can't imagine what it was like in real life. TG http://www.exotic-tiki-gardens.com
