The original Canadian Mapleleaf trucks were Montreal-licence-built 1-1/2-ton to five-ton models that were originally developed by Menard Motor Truck Company of Ontario. They were produced between 1919 and 1922.
The better-known Maple Leaf models were built at General Motors’ Oshawa plant in Canada, from 1930 until 1948.
As per online info.
Amongst the missing parts, are the big chrome, independently attached bug-eyed style headlamps. The wiring however, seems to be intact and is seen protruding through the sturdy metal of the large, flared-out front fenders.
This vintage find was captured in the Central Interior Region of British Columbia

Thank-you for all the overwhelming support and many friendships.
Stay Healthy

I photographed this beautiful densely-leafed tree that was overhanging the river in a heavily-shaded woods. I guess that's why this tree is banned in some States. It's not supposed to be growing in the "wild."
I've always admired the Norway Maple trees (Acer platanoides) planted along roadways. Some species have dark green leaves; others have dark burgundy colored leaves, and they are relatively disease-resistant. They were introduced as landscape ornamental trees over 100 years ago. Now, they are displacing native species in some areas.
Seasons change and so did I
You need not wonder why
You need not wonder why
There's no time left for you
No time left for you
Lyrics by Randy Bachman / Burton Cummings
A leaf from a red maple tree (Acer rubrum - Sapindaceae) sits after a rain, covered with waterdrops in Eagle River, Wisconsin

The effect was made by photographing leaves at some distance through a window with raindrops on it that was close to the lens. The water droplets created the circular foreground bokeh.

I cannot live fast enough!
For a swirl of rushing air
Catches the red leaves from my feet
And scatters them everywhere.
I cannot live fast enough!
Look! those trees were green and now are bare
And over the cold horizon hills
The winter sun-fires glare.
I have not lived fast enough!
I must hurry, must run, must dare,
There is time yet for a red leaf
To tangle itself in my hair!
~Eda Lou Walton, "A Song," c.1919
I can so relate to these lyrics - autumn is slipping away so fast and I feel there is so much autumn beauty I still want to capture!
It's mid-August so too early for Wisconsin's maple leaves to be turning colors, but don't tell that to these leaves that have decided to display their lovely hues!

The scientists were in a great excitement this night. An unusual natural phenomenon showed itself in the clear night sky between the stars: red and glowing appeared a ball of light behind the mountain silhouette. They are still wondering if it's a unknown solar system up to now – maybe with a new kind of life?

Die Wissenschaftler waren diese Nacht in heller Aufregung. Eine ungewöhnliche Naturerscheinung zeigte sich am klaren Nachthimmel zwischen den Sternen: rot und glühend erschien ein Lichtball hinter der Bergsilhouette. Sie rätseln immer noch, ob es ein bisher unbekanntes Sonnensystem ist – vielleicht mit einer neuen Art von Leben?

Ingredients: This dried leaf of a maple (Acer platanoides) I found between the leaves of an old textbook my daughter cleaning up. Sidelight for general lighting and reflection of the red light of a flashlight aimed at a blue packaging in the background. The stars are later drawn in the processing.

Zutaten: Dieses getrocknete Blatt eines Spitzahorns (Acer platanoides) fand ich zwischen den Blättern eines alten Schulbuches meiner Tochter beim Aufräumen. Seitenlicht für die allgemeine Beleuchtung und Reflektion des roten Lichts einer Taschenlampe auf eine blaue Verpackung im Hintergrund gerichtet. Die Sterne sind später in der Verarbeitung eingezeichnet.

Norway maple is one of the most common trees in German cities or villages and is particularly noticeable at the beginning of spring, when a large number of yellow-green umbels emerge from roads, avenues and parks in a fresh, bright green before the darker leaves, while many other trees are still largely bare.

Der Spitzahorn gehört zu den häufigsten Bäumen in deutschen Städten oder Dörfern und ist besonders zu Frühlingsbeginn auffällig, wenn eine Vielzahl gelbgrüner Blütendolden noch vor dem dunkleren Laubaustrieb Straßen, Alleen und Parks in ein frisches, helles Grün taucht, während viele andere Bäume noch weitgehend kahl sind.
