Jim -- I have been thinking about rain on my TW also, and looking at those
awnings you see that are like an old army cot, canvas stretched between what
looks like threaded pipe frame. The legs usually have a little angle to them
and the roof is pitched for stability; you can also anchor them to eg cement
blocks. haven't seen one ready-made that's tall enough for an A/S yet but it
doesn't seem like it would be very difficult to adapt or even make one. Some
ads say they will make custom sizes. The ones at this link look more
substantial (i.e., total coverage instead of just an awning) than other ads I've
seen, but may give you some ideas. There was an ad in our local "flea market"
paper sometime this winter offering 2 brand new ones for around $140 (I think
that was for both).
