CN M314 heads south horning for Highway 612 and will tone up the foreman at mile 128 of the Bala Sub minutes after its passing. In the background, you can see some trees are already turning. No, this is not an early autumn, the temperatures are still well into the 30's and the sun is still too high. It is merely due to the fact that Ontario had a crappy winter 11 season along with a very dry spring and summer. Those aren't dead leaves, those are dead trees. Forest fire warning levels are at extreme and Ontario has been victim to forest fires at an abnormally severe level. We all be wishin' for rain!
