Indian invasion

[CaptKen]

While there last week, took the grandkids for a ride up to the creekside meadows camping area. Couple days before when I toured the area, there was assorted tents set up everywhere. This time, there was TeePees everywhere. No conventional tents was to be seen. It was really neat to see all the orginal native american (politically correct term) teepees set up with other indian camping items.
Anyone know who these people were or what was going on?

no clue. But I'd be interested to find out.

They were doing the scavenger hunt Thursday and came by looking for a few things which we did not have. A big gulp cup, can of cranberry, Mondays news paper...all I could offer was a bottle of Scotch....(That was to the parents helping them....)

There are also some pictures posted on the Picture of the Day for The Fort thread.

They were really neat to see. Brought back memories of a show some time back about Wigwams (notice I didn't say TeePee) and how they were made. Not as simple as you would think. Also the Wigwam was owned by the women of the tribe and they were responsible for erecting and breaking it down and all repairs. The men just hunted and waged war.

The structures that were at the fort are teepees. Wigwams are low, round structures made of curved poles and covered with animal skins or other natural cover.

A guy walks into his doctors office and says " Doc I got a problem, I have these same two dreams every night. One night I dream I am a tee pee, the next night I dream I am a wigwam. What am I going to do?"

The doctor looks at him and says, " relax, you just too tents"


Taaa Daaaa, my first bad joke on the "dis"

My grandfather used to put his toupee in the oven just to keep his "wig warm"

When I started reading this thread - I thought how cool. One of our fellow scouters has a teepee and the kids love it. Then I read the whole thread and man did it go south - even if I did lol - sorry laugh out loud (forgot I wasn't texting)
