Surviving a Hurricane

In October 1999, a hurricane hit South Florida.. Hurricane Floyd I think it was named.  I was living on the beach area so I had to evacuate.  I went, where else, to the hospital. I was on an administrative leave, but I was able to find my way into the Trauma center and found a bed in the call room to hang out at for a while.  I think I may have spend some time in my vehicle in the Parking garage as well.  I remember that somehow during the storm, perhaps the beginning or perhaps the end,  I was back on the beach and at my apartment complex.  I stood between 2 apartment buildings separated by a few hundred feet perhaps.  Maybe less.  I stood there and the wind nearly blew me over.  Well I guess thats really not too exciting, but I will say I was impressed.
