During a report on the motel, while it was standing vacant, Houston television reporter Nancy Holland said "It [the motel] says something about who we were at a certain time. Actually, we were probably never as innocent as we were naive. The restoration of the year old structures has been promised more times than there are tee pees; but this time they mean business. In addition to each unit having a bedroom and bath, other amenities include refrigerators, microwaves and coffeemakers - things that were either luxuries or science fiction when your grandparents stayed at the Tee Pee. The complex will also include an RV park with full hookups. Included in the new decor will be portrayals of Native American culture - specifically "tribes that are a part of Texas' history. The Tee Pee's beacon to weary travelers awaits restoration.

In planning for a recent vacation, my wife found a motel she wanted to visit. In the early '40s, people were just starting to travel long distances by cars and motels were opening. Places wanted an edge and buildings appeared as hotdogs, ducks, cows, dogs and lots and lots of teepees. The fast majority of these wonderful bits of Americana succumbed to progress.
