do you leave your awnings out?

After frantically trying to put away an (absent) RV neighbor's awning as a gust front came through and nearly went sailing myself - I won't leave ours opened unless we're sitting under it. Also - I'm a light sleeper, and if the awning is out and there's a breeze - I can feel it rocking the RV.

Now, I HAVE enjoyed sitting under it in the rain - watching the grandkids run/splash under the awning runoff point....LOL!!
