Borrowed Ground

While the community gathers to celebrate Joe and Lucy's marriage in the winter magic of the Upper Skagit Valley, there is one person who refuses to feel the love; their neighbor, Hilda. She is determined to mar their happiness with a vindictive property line dispute, and before the ink is dry on their marriage certificate, they find themselves embroiled in a series of stomach-churning ordeals that they must overcome in order to keep their home, and their pottery business, viable. All of this they endure while trying to reason with Hilda. But when she sabotages the ancient apple tree growing in front of their house, they can't help but wonder if it's the property line that's truly bothering their neighbor, or something deeper. "Borrowed Ground" brings Joe and Lucy back from "How to Make a Pot in 14 Easy Lessons" and sets them up with new, shared lessons, that cause them to reflect on the validity of the earthly boundaries we seem so intent on guarding.
