A Simple Life, Fall, 2013
Vernon Reeves spent years collecting prized primitive furnishings for his woodland Missouri home, turning it into a showcase. Several years later, he moved to a “sidewinder” home in St. Louis, a few blocks from the Mississippi River. Obviously, he faced the challenge of migrating his primitive treasures to his much smaller home, as well as changing aspects of his lifestyle. I’d interviewed the creative Vernon nine years before this article, and found it fun and informative to catch up on his more recent adventures.
