Remember my tipi idea from a few days ago? I was feeling pretty down, no one thought my idea could work, at least those that knew construction materials. Yes, a fiberglass tipi would fit the dream of tipis in Ten Sleep… But I am just on to “playing” with extended life and/or solid tipi for…

Ideas
If only I could be hired for my ideas… I have TONS of ideas of things to do, make, or create… but rarely enough time, talent, or money to follow through on things! One idea I’ve been kicking around for YEARS, was to have painted tipis around Ten Sleep. Some cities have painted bears, or…
Tipi Q & A
Well, my post from the other day spurred lots of questions about my sister’s tipi, so I thought I’d share more pics, explain a bit more, maybe help you understand some things! First of all, there’s the Way Back Machine and my post about my sad little wrinkly tipi from clear back in 2008!!!! Holy…
Guest House
After we’d soaked up the ambiance from Medicine Lodge State Park… My sister and I were in the mood for this… A rainbow appeared in the distance! I left for home right here… the hard work was done… and it just needed staked and tightened. Please note: Our wonderful blue skies have returned!!!! But later…
Finally. Crow Fair Powwow Video

So I remade the darn thing, and uploaded it again. Then I had maxed out my limit… what???? Looked again, the FIRST video was up. Sheesh. Deleted the…

Old Girl – One Last Time, Honest!
I know my tipi has been the focus lately and though it isn’t a part of REGULAR RANCHLIFE, hey, this blog is about MY RANCHLIFE, and most people don’t know about tipis, so I consider this an educational opportunity! I really hate losing those “teachable moments”, so bear with me. I did shrink the photos,…
Old Girl – Overs
I wanted to share how my love affair with tipis began. That’s me, the little blondie playing in front of a tipi that my mom and dad made. Yup. They made it. Daddy went to a powwow somewhere outside of Durango, Colorado. He was so impressed with all the tipis, he came home and drew…

Snow lodge
Sigh. Guess what. I didn’t succeed at getting my tipi down. So there she sets waiting for sunshine. Which may not come for a while. It has rained and snowed and the wind is currently howling outside. I hope the weather improves because I don’t want to leave her out all winter. I did…
