The deck of our house came with a cloth canopy. The canopy lasted longer than we could have expected and it is time for the next solution (they cost 3k). We're a couple of years from either putting on a permanent roof or extending the family room. Until then we're going piece it together.

If nothing else I might stick a couple of 10x10 tents into this space to make it liveable. Can anyone else think of a different inexpensive short-term solution for covering this area? The poles that held up the canopy are still in place. Thank you very much in advance!
