Twin Pines Ranch
From Futurepedia, the Back to the Future Wiki
- "My pine! Why you... You space bastard! You killed a pine!!!"
- —Otis Peabody
The Twin Pines Ranch was the ranch of Otis Peabody in 1955. It consisted of a ranch house, and barn, and his prized twin pine trees. This is the location that Marty McFly appeared in when he inadvertently time traveled back to 1955. Out of shock, Marty crashed into the Peabody's barn. Due to a close resemblance to Mr. Peabody's son's comic book, Mr. Peabody began to fire a shotgun at Marty. As Marty drove fast to get away from danger, he ran over Mr. Peabody's prized twin pine, leaving it as a lone pine.
Many years after Peabody was thrown in the County Asylum the following morning, the farm was later sold off to make way for Twin Pines Mall (Lone Pine Mall after one of the pine trees was destroyed).
Marty noted that the ranch was a mile from Lyon Estates after the second trip to November 5, 1955.
