Autumn--Oh, Wait, Winter
SUMMARY: California weather cools down finally.
(And at last my domain hosting service has fixed my FTP access, so Taj MuttHall is back!)
I finally turned on the furnace just a day before Thanksgiving, which is late late late; usually it seems I need it on by Halloween.
Just a week or so ago, I noticed that the trees in my yard still had most of their leaves, and that most of them were still green. Then, Thursday morning, I looked out my kitchen window, and this apple tree had metamorphosed seemingly overnight into a glowing, golden, magically brilliant canopy. "Wow," I thought to myself (it being hard to think to other people), "I need to take a picture of that!" But life intruded, and that night we had a huge windstorm, and the next morning, the gold lay spread across my lawn. Boom, just like that, we went from summer, through autumn and into winter.
Still, with the yellow contact zones, yellow tunnel, and yellow Mutt Xing sign hanging on the tree, it made a lovely photo anyway.

Whoa! That's an interesting dogwalk set up. Do your dogs run it that way?
Yup! They never seemed to notice the difference. It's the only place in the yard that I can really set it up without it dominating the open space. Not many people in the universe have dogwalks that run through a tree, I'll admit.
