June 20, 1922 Krazy Kat by George Herriman

[ID: Krazy stands in a field looking at a Native American painted tipi. Ignatz stands behind him, looking the other way. /end] Krazy: Ah, a tent. Ignatz: It's not a tent.

[ID: Krazy turns sharply to a surprised Ignatz. /end] Krazy: Well, smotty, I s'pose you know wot it is!!! Ignatz: I sure do, it's a "teepee," if you wish to know.

Krazy: Oh, a "T.P." heh? And what does "T.P." mean? Ignatz: Just "teepee," silly. That's all.

Krazy: Call that tent a "T.P." if you want, but it's still a tent to me. Ignatz: How can a thing be a tent when it's a "teepee," fool?

Krazy: Just like you can be a "mice," and still be a "D.F.", that's how. Ignatz: "D.F."? What do you mean, "D.F."?

[ID: Krazy walks off as Ignatz leaps for a nearby brick. /end] Krazy: Dern Fool. Ignatz: B., do your S.

Tipi in the Woods - 2016

Came across this shelter in the woods one day during the peak of autumn colour.  A long-term makeshift Tipi for vagabonds that called it home during the summer months.  I looked inside the tent to find foam mattresses and cooking utensils strewn about, it appeared as though no one had visited the structure in quite some time.  After leaving the area I stopped to check myself for ticks and found a couple of the parasitic creatures crawling around on my stomach.  I can only imagine what it would be like to live in such conditions and constantly having to check yourself for the tiny arachnids.  Quebec, Canada.
