    My mother inlaw has a place on 3 acres with the little Manistee river running through it that has Salmonn in it.

    Very private yet not too remote 50 miles due east of Ludington

    She lets me store my boat's and semi in her pole barn . Gotta get up there next week and look at putting a new metal roof on the house for her.

    At least you didnt come down with an ailment. It made my head hurt. So I made an apology for not giving enough thnx.
    Still in pain, yet it is manageable today.

    I know a guy, before he retired, lived near Ok/Ar line, he had a good gig going for flatbed, would haul steel from Blytheville Ar to OKC, Tulsa or Muskogee, no tarp, reloaded at Pryor Ok (roll roofing) sometimes tarp depending on customer, and it went to Memphis/Little Rock.
    He did that for 20 years.

    At least they shrink wrap that rolled roofing now. They used to ship with one band around the center. you couldn't tie the V boards down tight because if it was crushed, it was rejected. Worst loads l ever hauled on flatbed.

    I used to just lay my boards up there on each side throw the strap over them, strap down then tarp it, the tarp helped hold it on the trailer
