Your assessment of the potential wind hazard was spot on. Unfortunately, the stakes may have held a little too well. [Linked Image]
At least the new Chevy wasn't harmed.

Watch out for those Iowegian wind storms! A few years ago I worked some big nasty wind claims up around Cedar Rapids.

It wouldn't be a trapper's convention in the Midwest without a windstorm. I think I have gone through a shade canopy almost every year that I went.

I spent the first 11 years of my life near Cedar Rapids, and I can't offer an argument.
