Earth friendly homes / Modern Teepees




No matter how you spell it; tipi, tepee or teepee, a Reliable Tipi is a charming lodge that kindles nostalgic memories of a simpler time in history. The materials in use today are modern and durable; the designs are authentic and replicate the tribal traditions of the western plains Indians. The Crow, Sioux, Cheyenne, and Blackfeet styles. The original dwellers of tipis were nomadic peoples attuned to the spirits, the land and its' animals, as well as, the seasons. Today we can enjoy a similar spiritual experience that seems to exist within all tipis.

    Greetings Wakiya...Amazing what they have done to the simple tipi.
    Following the Great Spirit in all things is something I always admired about the "Old Native American Ways..."
    It breaks my heart to see them wander from their ways and blend with the ways of the world, leaving the Great Spirit behind ...
    So easy to get lost once you start wandering away...
    Enjoy your blog, Thank you... The Gypsy Girl
