A memoir about one couple's project to renovate a rickety Victorian house and rebuild their own lives - one room at a time. This is a charming, funny and beautifully crafted memoir about a middle aged couple who threw financial caution to the wind to follow their dream of converting a run-down farmhouse into a thriving B & B.
