Boston residents got to see what 160,000 pounds of industrial printer ink looks like on a highway. Workers clean up the roadway after a tractor trailer carrying ink overturned on the ramp from 128 North to 95 North in Peabody.

Sometimes we just have to slow down and admire the beauty life throws at us, when we least expect it.
