    Ronnie and Amber’s House from “Modern Family”

    ‘ This season of Modern Family brought to life a storyline that is basically my worst fear – nightmare neighbors.  Poor Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire Dunphy (Julie Bowen) had their tranquility disturbed in the episode titled “Won’t You Be Our Neighbor” when loudmouth medicinal marijuana dealer Ronnie LaFontaine (Steve Zahn), his wife, Amber (Andrea…
