Wow, W. Mark ~ Your report was far more information than I had hoped for! Through your experience (scary though it was), I have a much better idea of what my personal level of comfort/safety is when dealing with wind. While infrequent, there are days we get very heavy wind (Santa Ana Winds are forecast today, in fact) and I was never sure what the effects would be. And I hate gambling with my family or a coach!
Thanks to all that were kind enough to share their experiences!!!
Mark
