I built this fence about 25 years ago along a walkway that runs along the side of our house to a rear entrance. Split rails have always been my favorite kinda fences, and when I was going through a lumber yard one day and saw a stack of cedar posts and rails, I couldn't resist buying a bunch and trying my hand at building one. It's still holding up good as new.
HFF!
METLAKATLA, British Columbia, is a small community that is one of the seven Tsimshian village communities in British Columbia, Canada. It is situated at Metlakatla Pass near Prince Rupert, British Columbia. It is the one Tsimshian village in Canada that is not associated with one particular tribe or set of tribes out of the Tsimshian nation's 14 constituent tribes. The name Metlakatla derives from the Tsimshian Maaxłakxaała, which means "saltwater pass." Traditionally, this site has been the collective winter village of the "Nine Tribes" of the lower Skeena River, which since 1834 have been mostly based at Lax Kw'alaams, B.C. By 1879 the population had grown to about 1,100. In July 1901 a fire destroyed St. Paul's Church at Metlakatla, demolishing what was said to have been the largest church north of San Francisco and west of Chicago, built by Duncan in 1874. In 1972, Metlakatla Pass was designated a National Historic Site of Canada. Since those days, Metlakatla, B.C., has remained among the smallest of the Tsimshian communities. In 1983 its population was 117, and quite dependent on the nearby city of Prince Rupert. It is still predominantly Anglican.

My wife Karalee and I spent two years living on a sailboat in the Mediterranean home schooling our three children Jocelyn, Kevin, and Allen. This photo was part of that adventure. You can learn more about it at www.davidgreer.ca/cruise/.
Split Complementery is choosing one color on the color wheel and using each color on each side of its complement (the color directly across the color you chose).
Left: In this chart I chose Cobalt Blue and its complements are Cad. Yellow Deep and Permamnet Red which are the two colors on each side of Warm Orange--the exact complement of Cobalt Blue.
Right: Pthalo Green and its split complements Permanent Red, and Magenta (New Orleans Red-Violet)
I'm using Terry Madden Paints and the Terry Madden Color Clock as my guide.
