Glad you are OK Capt. I have straps on most of mine to slowdown the bears. I doubt that they would have helped much if the hives were thrown through the air.
We had a small, 20' wide, tornado cut a brick house in half 2 miles from my farm. The husband and wife were sitting in their living room. Heard the back wall coming apart, they both turned and went through doors behind them and closed the doors. After it passed, they both opened the doors to find the room they were siting in completely gone. The material was thrown over a thousand feet. Only the floor remained in that room. One half of the house did not have to be replaced, the other side was shaken enough that they had to tear it down.
Talk about 2 lucky people to be alive.
