Landowner David Hampton planted larch pines in a Douglas fir forest in Oregon in the shape of a giant, 300 feet smiley face 🙂

Every autumn, the larch pines turn orange, and the smiley face stands out.

Born yesterday in 1971, Samuel Morse was an American inventor and painter, best known for his invention of the single-wire telegraph system and the co-development of Morse code.

His major contribution, the Morse telegraph, was the first device to effectively exploit electromagnetism for long-distance communication. It revolutionized the way people communicated over long distances by allowing almost instantaneous transmission of messages across continents and oceans.
