Then the LAWN blew away.

 We were in a Tiki hut with open sides, but after hurricane Dennis went 
through, there went the roof. Even though the wind was blowing (didn't 
need fans), it was still hot. Humid too, what with all the rain and 
water from the lagoon blowing up in our faces.

 The main things to worry about were sheared off street signs and car 
doors 'frisbeeing' around. Luckily, I had brought several ropes to tie 
down my car. On the way home, I was able to collect a lot of nice 
firewood.
