Burro Window Covers
It took awhile, but the covers for the Burro are finished. This keeps the water out when traveling, and makes it nice and dark so my wife can sleep till noon.

The plexiglass tended to flex and let water leak in when traveling at highway speeds in the rain. I thought the canvas might also help when the Burro is stored in winter.
