Blue tarps are still a common sight here in Houston, over six months after Hurricane Ike. After all, there were a lot of damaged roofs in this area as we faced a hurricane that did major destruction to so many parts of southeastern Texas. The amount of damage done has led to a backlog at most roofing companies -- and so many folks might end up going for a year with that stylish fashion statement on their home. What has amazed me is how durable those blue tarps really are. Six months in the elements and they still appear to be in great shape. I understand from friends who have them at their home that they still have no leakage, despite the passage of time.

What else can you use these tarps for? How about a shelter from the elements during a party or on a camping trip? Maybe protection for your boat or that old car that you are working on. Heck, I hear that if you wet them down they can even make a good surface for sliping and sliding on a hot day! But regardless of your need, for tarps, I'd encourage you to make sure you get yourself some -- because you never know when you might need them.
