Boeing, I am so very sorry to hear this. I too hope your son is calm there.
Losing a baby is one of the saddest things I can imagine. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family Being.
Thank you my family from woodbarter 
One second video of a 4 minute long exposure. It's easier to watch if you set it to .25x speed.

Pic. of the week- The Whitney Museum at The Meat Packing District…….
what material is she/they made of?
Wish my wife didn't want those temps in the summertime - I could buy more wood!
Li’l Mikey- plaster. “Feuerman composes her works of body parts cast from or modeled and carved after the living model. She has a magic touch with a paintbrush, applying dozens — sometimes hundreds — of coats of oil paint to create realistic flesh tones. Other works may be left in a neo-Victorian faux-marble plaster or stony whiteness”.
Every few years I take a short road trip around the back roads in my area to look at the fall leaves. Some years they are spectacular, others not so much. This year, not so much. For example:
I read that this is because we had a dry fall and that affects the vibrancy of the leaves.
I did see a couple of trees that were quite pretty but they were always at a spot where the road was narrow/curvy and had little to no shoulder (the road in the pic above is a highway by comparison) so no pics.
Around town, on the other hand, there were a plethora of bright red trees and bushes:
and a few of varying colors

Now this is paradise!! Mott,ND.
Not a building or power line in sight!
Open land to the horizon! Way cool! What is everyone hunting for? Chuck
Wonder how many of those bare trees are dead ash trees in that first picture? Our trees are bare, accept the red oaks. We don't have any other oaks local. A few of the hickories still show leaves here.
Red, white and blue was the city’s theme this evening (from the Brooklyn Bridge and WTC)……….
Way cool!
The first time you will all probably see the work that it takes every year to get this X-mas tree ready for the holidays. “The 74-foot, 11-ton Norway Spruce was trucked in from West Stockbridge, Massachusetts”. It is “70 years old, first Rockefeller tree from MA since 1959”. This arrived several days ago (Nov. 9th)……..

What do they do with these big trees after they take them down?
Tree gets milled and use to build homes for families in need- “Habitat for Humanity”.
