I used to pick at this one, being it looked so much some of the record players of the 60's and 70's. However, world of difference when comparing the quality of build....

So very cool! I’ve not personally seen any of the Nakashima pieces, but have certainly read about his creations. Treasures! Chuck
 
I posted if anyone had any antlers that were taking up space and they wanted to get rid of them to let me know. A buddy of mine had these
 
A gnarly old alligator juniper I saw on a hike above Flagstaff yesterday. It has survived at least one fire. The base is about 4 feet diameter

My 3 boys came to town and I had to show them around NYC. This was my 4th time doing this tour and it is worth it, even with the crazy line and wait time for the ferry. The Statue of Liberty is on my top “4” if there was an attraction you have to go see in NYC. I will not post all the pics. because that would be spoiling it for those who might possibly plan to visit. Ellis Island is something else and it is a “must see” and I would imagine most of you had some connection to folks that passed here that migrated into America. There were 5,000 immigrants who were processed here per day among other things and just the flight for them to go through so many test, trials and tribulations for an immigrant to set foot in America to start a new life.

There are incredible views of the New York Harbor, NYC Financial District, Hell’ Kitchen with a tid bit of downtown Brooklyn/DUMBO.

Yes, it's shame the problems we're having with immigration these days. Immigrants went through hell and high water to get here and they've always been the long term life-blood of the nation.
 
Ah, I remember the little boogers well. One of their 17-year cycles was when I was in MD and GADS were there a lot of them.
 
Yard shrooms. The big ones are about 8" diameter. Makes me think of "Fairy houses". This is at a clients house and the second week in a row they've appeared.
