Coconuts

So, the wind has been howling for going on four days now. It started with the huge thunder cell that sat directly overhead for most of Sunday night and continued more or less consistently through last night when another thunder storm blew through. This one stayed offshore and most of the lightning was north and west of us. It rained just enough to activate the special palm fertilizer I spread under the coconut that dominates the front yard. It's been looking rather poorly this past winter, dropping a lot of fronds and seeming to not grow new ones.

Meanwhile the wind has knocked over the smaller potted plants, mostly geraniums, and a trash can full of aluminum soda cans waiting to be recycled.
