26. Smashed the roof. Our neighbors lost home in Andrew, get panicky.
They could not bear to stay in our neighborhood which has huge live oaks. They went to their friends house, with only one tree anywhere about. It split in half and fell.

This couple hid in their bathtub when Andrew hit. Their home was almost totally demolished. They can not even plan when a storm is coming. Hubby goes over to help them get organized, get the pool covered, etc. They just freeze.

I can not say that I blame them at all.
