<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> In early December 2017 one of the finishing touches to all the work was to have Dwayne place one of Kerras' carved fisherman on top of the steeple! It's perfect!</span></span><br />

This piece is a church picnic scene he knew well when growing up in the 1960-70's in rural Prince Edward Island. In this piece he has the hallmarks of a church picnic - the cake auction; the homemade ice cream; the knock-the-cats-over game; the man who had too much to drank; the young man giving his girl a flower; a man running to the outhouse, etc. </span><br />

Arnold Smith bought this piece from Kerras in 2002. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Kerras was brought up in a large family with four brothers and two sisters - he was in the middle, three older siblings and three younger siblings, and the 5th generation of Jeffery's on their family farm in western Prince Edward Island. When he was a child the heart of the home was the kitchen with the wood range (stove) - this was the main source of heat in the house and where his mother prepared all their meals. In wintertime the kids would be outside skating and playing on the ice - their feet would get cold and wet, so when they came in to the house off came the boots and socks, the door to the warm oven would be opened, and a chair pulled up to sit and warm the feet. The hat and mitts would be placed on top of the "warming oven" to dry.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> The range in this vignette is identical to the one in the Jeffery home where Kerras grew up.</span><br />

The nest box is made from an old steel bread box I had kicking around - I put a set of drawer sliders on the nest box to bring it towards me to collect the eggs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> I carved out a fox - started with a cedar log and he's looking out for the chickens. The feeder is made out of PBS piping. Any of you who might be in the neighbourhood please stop by and have a look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Also checkout this Youtube video about the coop! Hear the rooster crowing! <span style="line-height: 18.4px;"><a href="https://youtu.be/OiuEom5zkaY">https://youtu.be/OiuEom5zkaY</a></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The out side of the reno to the '73 Super Bug. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> I took out the headlights and replaced them with fishing buoys. The fender medallions I made using the following: the beak is from pliers; the tail is from a set of tongs and the
body is a small fishing buoy. Where the engine was
I have made it into a feed bin for shell grit, etc. For the back fenders I put parts of an old lamp to add a different touch. I put a Venmar vent on the roof to keep thing dry inside. On the front door window I put on over racks for screening when the windows are down. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> I will post the inside reno on the next post.</span></span></div>
