It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder,
It's the forests where silence has lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder,
It's the stillness that fills me with peace.

Now that is an absolutely superb capture of a moment! Thanks for sharing that! Now, watch that Tony doesn't want to start dancing with them if he spies something like that!
