Maple

Acer /ˈsər/ is a genus of trees or shrubs commonly known as maple. There are approximately 128 species, most of which are native to Asia, with a number also appearing in Europe, northern Africa, and North America. Only one species, Acer laurinum, extends to the Southern Hemisphere. The type species of the genus is the sycamore maple, Acer pseudoplatanus, the most common maple species in Europe.

Morphology

Most maples are trees growing to 10–45 m (33–148 ft) height. Others are shrubs less than 10 metres tall with a number of small trunks originating at ground level. Most species are deciduous, and many are renowned for their autumn leaf colour, but a few in southern Asia and the Mediterranean region are evergreen. Most are shade-tolerant when young and are often riparian, understory, or pioneer species rather than climax overstory trees with a few exceptions such as Sugar Maple. Many of the root systems are typically dense and fibrous, inhibiting the growth of other vegetation underneath them. A few species, notably Acer cappadocicum, frequently produce root sprouts, which can develop into clonal colonies.

Maple GO Station

Maple GO Station is a train and bus station on GO Transit's Barrie line, located in Maple, Ontario, Canada. It is Ontario's oldest operating railway station, with passenger service dating back to 1853.

History

Maple Station opened on May 16, 1853 when the service began on the Ontario, Simcoe, and Huron Railroad between Toronto and Machell's Corners (now Aurora). At the time, the station was named "Richmond Hill", despite being six kilometres west of that community. Train service was extended to Barrie later in 1853, and to Collingwood in 1855.

The current station building was constructed in 1903 by the Grand Trunk Railway to replace the original Ontario, Simcoe and Huron building, which had burned down. The Queen Anne style timber frame structure is clad in wood using stick style patterns, and features large gables in its roofline. It is federally protected by the Heritage Railway Stations Protection Act.

The building underwent renovations that were completed in January 2014 for CA$1.7 million. It included repairs to the facade and interior, replacement of the floor, and an upgrade to the accessibility ramps. An additional 60 parking spaces were added to the station in the spring of 2015.

    Come on over
    Let me watch you
    Let me hold you
    Let me touch you
    Right or wrong
    I should have stayed up 'till the break of dawn
    Ever since our eyes did meet
    I long to see
    Your eyes
    Surprised me like a moon on a cowboy movie screen
    I never found out what it means!
    I must be out of my head
    It must be something I said
    So come on
    I'll waste my life [on you]
    You think I'm out of my head
    But I'm romantically dead
    So come on
    I'll waste my life on you!
    Come on over
    Let me watch you
    Let me hold you
    Let me touch you
    I'm right, you're wrong
    You should have come to me before too long
    You'll never leave my sight again
    To keep you then
    Your eyes
    Deny me like the sun on a night sky movie scene
    And I just don't care what it means!
    I must be out of my head
    It must be something I said
    So come on
    I'll waste my life [on you]
    You think I'm out of my head
    But I'm romantically dead
    So come on
    I'll waste my life on you!
    And I hate to be the one
    The one to drop you the bomb
    You wouldn't wait around
    But I'll be watchin' you
    Woooooo you!
    Woooooo you! YEAH you
    Woooooo you!
    Woooooo you! YEAH you
    Woooooo
    Woooooo
    I'll watch your every move
    You can't know we can't hurt
    You got no choice I got you!
    I must be out of my head
    It must be something I said
    So come on
    I'll waste my life [on you]
    You think I'm out of my head
    But I'm romantically dead
    So come on
    I'll waste my life on you!
    I must be out of my head
    It must be something I said
    So come on
    I'll waste my life on you!
    You think I'm out of my head
    But I'm romantically dead
    So come on!
    I'll waste my life
    I'll waste my life
