My favourite thing to do once the leaves start changing colours is to go out and just drive randomly; see where you end up and take a look at the world changing around us. So, I took a drive on the weekend to see the fall leaves in the forests north of my home. I drove east for about an hour out to Lindsay, then up to Minden, on to Dorset, and through to Huntsville. I stopped in Dorset to go up the fire tower. I've always wanted to but have only ever driven past. I came across the sign for the small town turned in and found a museum immediately. Behind the museum was a trail that another man was pointing out to be the way up to the tower. So, I grabbed my camera, threw my jacket around my waist and started hiking. Up, way way up. Extremely winded about 20 minutes later I get to the top of this very steep climb that I had just taken, only to come upon a parking lot. Had I only driven another 1/2 mile up the road I would have found the drive way for the top of the hill. LOL. It was a wonderful and beautiful day. Here's just a few of the shots I took.
