Agree with your thoughts Scott. There was plenty of good stuff there. Real good stuff. I understand why a show environment demands a glam factor well above the bar, and I was pleased to see some builders including some of the more grounded examples of their work in the mix. It was a little bunched up in many booths, and that made it more difficult to appreciate the good stuff when it was found -- but that's show biz. I'll be checking web sites for a more intimate look at what I may have missed.
