    Get a nice tarp. My dad got me hooked on canvas ones. So big I can put a lay on the bed..out stuff in it then fold it over. Works well to fight again t a rain storm. Unless it's a huge one.

    National Guard has some stuff we could borrow..............

    You can achieve the same effect with surgical tubing as a launcher. My dad was a big prankster in college, and would launch water balloons over college buildings onto picnics on the other side. Pretty funny stories he has.
