There seems to be quite a lot of tilting at windmills going on with the election here in the US.

It was the donkey riding that I was referring to mostly. Don Quixote is a funny story!

Did donkeys move here from another thread?

 

[pennyJo1960]

Nope those where Jackasses

They will have good dust bath material all winter under there.

How do you keep the run roof from collapsing when the wet snow hits?

as I am a foreigner.

Are you at home? Yes? Then all the REST of us are the foreigners!
Don Quixote is a story from Spanish author Miguel de Cervantes

tipping and tilting!

Right, you tilt at windmills and tip cows

It's fairly sturdy, one place needs a 2x2 post for support...mostly tho, keep it cleared off.
First winter it sagged terribly after heavy wet overnight, bent low but no kinks and bounced back nicely after clearing it off.
