yea i thought of the duct tape but with me leaving here soon the hwy winds will rip it off i just ordered replacements for all three they say unbreakable --- yea like i believe that hahaha but they do have a lifetime warranty so if it happens again i can get them replaced for free
i looked from the side wile walkin around and theres a big chunka branch bout 4 inches around layin on the roof so till we get up there and see im gonna say thats the boogerr haha

stefan i didnt do so bad on the replacements i got three so they all will be the lifetime ones and it cost around 60.00 but thats just for the lids not the whole insert there was nothing wrong with the crank part or the screens so i fig ill be ok for awile --now i just hope the next 1054 miles go smooth haha

sands you are so lucky it was just a little one. seems like they start falling much worse in the fall and winter months though i watched a whole tree fall 30 minutes after i was mowing under it. blew my mind as it had green leaves. it fell in the opposite direction that the wind was blowing too. in fact i think most of it is still on the ground lol.

John, there's a lot to see in New Mexico. I've been here since 1979 and I still haven't seen it all...PLUS, there's pretty darn good trout fishing here.

Sandsman, if you want to take the long haul to Alaska some summer, I'll put you on rivers and beaches that have never been collected. Same goes for anyone else in this community.
