There's still garbage bags on the bicycle lights at Trim/174 and the thermoplastic has been installed for some time.

July 1, 2015. Southwestern Manitoba. Worst forest fire smoke I had experienced. It would have been great if it stayed the worst, but severe fire seasons are becoming all too common.
