Nope - I'm not the only one in our home at the moment
who has been working away on a major project..
our sassy boyo (and his dad) have been working together
night and day (and day and night)
on a rather amazing small (LARGE) project
for the South Coast Field Days
(on this weekend at Bega showground)
can you guess what it is...
its a magnificent model of
a paddock chicken tractor!
(complete with real fake plastic chickens!)
made from scrap wood and metal (found in the sheds), jam jars,
tonka toy wheels, plastic drink bottles, old vitamin containers
and a whole mess of love and attention to detail!

sass was up at dawn this morning to complete the tags
that explain all the features and details of his model...
later on I will be delivering this labour of love to the showground
as it will join other chicken tractor models by local kiddies
(a challenge organised by the wonderful folk at The Crossing)
