Hi all.. have you climbed on a tree? I had already climbed a lot of trees. What are these trees? Coconut, tamarind,carabao and indian mangoes..and another tree that has purple fruit. The carabao mango had nasty ants guarding their home. The indian mango had more leaf cover and one unripe fruit had a terrible taste that I cannot stand up after eating it. Ive built a treehouse at the tamarind tree while the coconut provided some fresh juice. This march I have harvested a few carabao mangoes and their growing again. Life is sweet when trees are around. thumbupcheering

Wow you're great. Good for you that you can do these things. I've never climbed any real tree but I wish I could. It's always amazing to watch kids from third world countries climb trees really fast to collect fruits. They do it and make it look so easy but I know it isn't, I once tried about 8 years ago when I was younger, well I just didn't get the hang of it.

happy hi friend. yes it is especially hard for females to climb since they cant exert enough force to bring themselves up a tree. besides its frightening up there. so your lucky you dont have to climb while us guys suffer from bruises and the nightmare that is acrophobia.fear

Yes, but the last time I climbed trees was when I was a little girl. haha. When I was young, I enjoy playing with my playmates and we often climb trees in the forest at the back of my grandma's house every summer. We climbed mango trees. I never experienced climbing at a coconut tree, oh man, that's too tall and I was small. Tamarind trees have lots of caterpillars so I never climbed that tree too. I love mango trees, and while we're on top, we would eat mangoes. But now that me and my old friends have grown up, we don't climb trees anymore. We're ladies now. lol.

hmmm i havent seen a caterpillar with our tamarind tree. however as I was relaxing at my treehouse a form of eagle landed on a branch. it was brown but not that popular as the philippine eagle. thats the first of two sightings I have with that bird. I admire the birds courage to fly near me. It jumped from branch to branch looking for something and I froze and watched him.

i used to during my pre teen years. We live in a province then and my usual daily playmates were my two male cousins who as expected love to play rough games. One of their favorite past time is climbing trees like mango, kaimito, duhat or any fruit bearing tree in season. So as not to be left out, i also learned how to climb trees well, sometimes to the extent of being scolded and grounded in the house by my father if he caught me climbing a tree. He can't understand why i enjoy doing it as a girl.


myLot reputation of 78/100. cowboyofhell (2002)   ranked 2,146 out of 19,281 in questions & answers  2 years ago

lol by the way i like that avatar albeit crazier than expected. anyway thanks for supplying the word for the purple fruit. its duhat pala or java plum in english. im glad that even though mylots mostly english i still learn some tagalog words. you know its nice that your dad warns you even i have been warned to go down my treehouse and thrown stones at me from the ground. i was looking at him from above and it was funny when he throws those stone at me. since he tries to hit me I just went down to my disappointment.


myLot reputation of 41/100. namiya (179)   ranked 5,705 out of 19,281 in questions & answers  2 years ago

I can fell your disappointment too. they just can't understand the fun you're getting, but being a parent now, i realize why my father had treated me that way.

yep climbing trees would rather be a boys thing cuz no point scaring self to death with the heights of the tree. it was only last year that i climbed a coconut tree so far since before the age of 20 im not that capable with climbing high. but now the coconut already died i wont have to climb.

i used to climb tress w\during my teen days at the province coz we have different tress there, sometimes i bring salt with me and eat the fresh fruit that i just picked and eat it there while sitting in one of the branches. its so nice to eat fresh fruits and i miss to do it.

at our place every direction one looks there are mangoes. im happy to be a boy that i have the strength to climb up any kind of tree that bear edible fruit although at times my fear of heights stop me cold with reaching some bunch of mangoes. that mango tree really smart. it set its fruits far and high as though it only allows the bravest person to take them.

hi! yes, i have climbed on trees many times in my childhood, mostly in late summer when the apples and the cherries are ripe and I must collect them from the tree. I have climbed maybe hundred times on the trees in my grandmothers yard, and I am still doing it, but now i am a little bit scared, because I am heavier now :)

Climbing trees is great and you sure climb trees alot. I don't climb them as much as you it seems but we used to have a big tree in the front of our house i used to climb all the time but then we had it cut down :( ah well, now we can see stuff from our window :)

Something pops up when something disappears. I lost my treehouse to my ruthless grandaunt. She burned the tree into coal ruining my treehouse along the way. As a result a quarter of the sky became visible and I was able to watch meteor showers.

Well said!! life is great when trees around. But the current situation trees are required more to save against global warming. In india, planting trees has become the major concern of every one. I climbed mango tree, we use tie a rope and make it as swing.. those are sweet days and trees were our great friends!!

Climbing a tree is a great childhood pastime. But it doesn't always come naturally, especially for those of us with a fear of heights or uncertainty as to the tree's stability.But,with proper training, everyone can climb.


myLot reputation of 78/100. cowboyofhell (2002)   ranked 2,146 out of 19,281 in questions & answers  2 years ago

your right. I am able to conquer my fear of heights thanks to that beautiful tree. I trained myself and soon I was at the top and the hard wood of the tree kept me aloft above the ground. its dead now burned to charcoal sad
