Army to the rescue!
Above: we rushed outside to see an army Chinook helicopter carrying a forty foot electricity tower.
Precariously it dangled from the chopper as it passed over our home.

The trees look like naked match sticks!
Above: trees were left with very little foliage, only the strongest of staghorn and basketfern plants held onto the trees.
Numbers of orchids littered the ground.
The bananas are the remnants of a research patch. This image was taken two weeks after Larry.
