The Flying Tree

Sadly we had to remove a few trees. I saw the tall black locust tree flying when the big crane truck picked it up from backyard and sent to front. The flying was short and at slow speed followed by a careful landing. Shortly after, the big trunk and all the limbs and branches were fed into the chipper and became wood chips. The only thing left is the tree stump. Can you count the tree rings?

I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees.
