In preparation for the trip to the Orangeville Alpaca show in April, we purchased a truck cap with a rack on top.
To make it easier to off load the large loom we purchased on the weekend, it made sense to back the truck right up to the door where we would be unloading the loom.
All wenta as planned until it was time to return the truck complete with roof rack back to the garage. From inside the house, I heard a screeching sound and ran to the door to find out what was wrong with the truck.
As it turns out, the truck was just fine, but the clothes line was caught in the roof rack, and the noise was the sound of the clothes line and 20 ft steel light pole being pulled to the ground!
A frantic call to the neighbour to bring his tractor ensued, and we were able to push the pole back into place. We'll see how many windstorms it survives.
