The stuff going by my dock includes some Mt Washington-stoppers.

One construction worker nearby, very loudly (though his normal talk is loud) screamed, "A tree! A tree!"

Wondering what this was about (I can see 100,000 trees from my computer), I waited a minute -- and 'lo and behold -- a 40-foot maple drifted by on an ice-floe the size of a tennis court.

Yes, it's reported...and don't go there.
