Lovely apartments from my future city
As some of you might already know, in August I am moving to DC because my boyfriend will be attending GWU in the fall to get his masters. While I grew up in MD, I only ever went to DC for school field trips, so I don't really know much about the different neighborhoods. So yesterday before...

For the love of old houses…
I LOVE old houses - so much charm, history, character, and individuality. A lot of maintenance too - but the pay off is worth it. I grew up in an almost 200 year-old colonial on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Hardwood floors with as many ups and downs as an old country lane, old glass windows that gave you...
