Mr. Bachmann,
Neat Tee- Pees, did you make them yourself? As a side note Tee-Pees were mostly plains Indian shelters. But in other regions they had lodges, temporary shelters made of sticks. And desert southwest they used adobe style homes.
Not sure who all had totem poles but pacific northwest tribes had them for sure.
I have some Cherokee ancestry from moms side of the family. Cherokee is a nation which is made up of several tribes from what I understand.
Not much new here train wise.
Hi AF350 and Running Bear , the T-Pee's are from <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.fiddlersgreen.net">http://www.fiddlersgreen.net</a><!-- m --> I came across them by accident and saved the picture to my photo's then printed it and it turned out O.K. they may be a bit small - but I model N scale and they fit around the lake side - the curve is drawn around a 12" LP record , and Backmann tram's , 0-6-0's and 45 and 70 toners and the Kato Glacier Express loco will handle the curves .
well that was the most exiting part of the day ... mmm , wonder if garage has car ready ????
