NApalm 30 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 I feel for those coconuts. Poor fellas been there for years then head first into the sand bum up in the air. Not a very dignified ending haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fan palm 175 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 Pretty scary if you have property near the ocean down there Daryl! Frank, those coconuts were probably planted to close together anyway... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim in Los Altos 3,005 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 Get a back hoe out there and dig up those poor guys and re-plant. That's at least what my first reaction was to that picture. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knowing coconuts they would survive if this was done within a day or two of the toppling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff Searle 1,202 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 I say stand them back up like a lollipop and let the birds nest in them. Maybe at the right distance, Wal could string up a hammock and write a new song. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WestCoastGal 2,339 Report post Posted June 26, 2013 What surprises me the most I think is that I don't see a bit of the canopies anywhere in the sand. They've got to be under quite a bit of piled up sand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daryl 1,800 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 I hope somebody rescues them...I'm sure they would survive. The swell and tides have backed off now...all we have to deal with now is torrential rain. Gonzer, I'm sure I saw Taylor riding down the beach on his horse the other day! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HorsesnPalms 12 Report post Posted June 28, 2013 OMG! That is awful. I'd be trying to figure out a way to save them. Poor guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
