Fall photos

Autumn is my favorite season.
Really, isn't it yours?

The changing leaves, golden slants of sunlight, roast chestnuts sold on the corner, mulled wine, nip in the air... Um. Sorry. Was enmeshed in wishful non-California dreaming.

But I still found some fall-like images while strolling around downtown Palo Alto recently. (I post them here especially for the reader who has moved back East and likes to read this blog for news of dear old PA. An entirely different kind of California dreaming.)
