Spring at Ron & Jill's
After a hard winter -- the biggest snow in Maryland history -- it's going to take us a while to get the garden back in shape. We've got a big project coming to the backyard -- Victorian iron cresting on our brick wall (120 feet). We'll post an update later this summer.

R ead the story of Ron and Jill's adventure.

We had been dating for only a few months when we bought our monster Victorian wreck--a former fraternity. Everyone said, "You're crazy--your love will never survive the chaos and stress of trying to save a ruined house like that!" They were almost right. See
