It looks like they went to some lengths to make this tepee as authentic as possible... you can even see the individual "buffalo hides" used in its construction. Say, I wonder what that sign says?
You will be tested on this later, so pay attention! And spit out that gum since you didn't bring enough for the whole class. I put plastic flamingos on my lawn as trophies of war. Just sayin'.
The Woman's Realm... interesting that the women owned the tepees and the property. These are stereo slides, and on this one, the 3-D effect is especially nice!
Well framed pics too. Did you mean to repeat the top pic? That teepee looks like we could be at home there. Beautiful, and the art on the signs is also fantastic.
ReplyDeletePlastic flamingos! LOL
Nice Tepee.
ReplyDeleteHa, ha. You tricked me! I thought the test was to see the difference between the top two pictures. Or maybe you gave us both of the stereo slides?
But now I understand your flamingos!
I'll put my gum behind my ear, no sense wasting perfectly good gum.
ReplyDeleteThey let the Indian women own the Teepee's since they had to do everything!..
Great sign shots, wow! Thanks Major!
Nice views of long past attractions, thank you. Esp. the signs. I love those too. Is it my imagination that the later sign quality is lower?

Chiana and Andrew, I have to confess that I was smoking crack when I composed this post. Time to fix it....
ReplyDeleteVDT, I used to store my gum behind my ear, but decided that it was sort of gross. Now I keep it in a nostril.
Anonymous, I think the second sign looks pretty good, although perhaps my scan is of a lesser quality!
My biggest disappointment as a kid was that there was nothing inside the tipis. I was hoping for an Indian version of the Tiki Room or something...
