Our across the street neighbor's ginkgo tree, all orangey gold, still has most of its leaves. Two other gingkos on the block have yet to turn.
In southern California, Fall means brown hills and green fields. The strawberry planting is all done in October. There are vast fields planted all over the county; this one is about two miles from us.
My favorite mountain range looms over the coastal plain. These are the Topa-Topa Mountains. Snow appears from time to time on this 3500 foot range during the winter storms, a lovely treat to see.
A fall vignette with a tablerunner I made last year. The other side has Halloween tumblers.
Gorgeous Thanksgiving Day flowers from my mom (she brought these but forgot her fruit salad, silly woman!)
Love the purple fringe on these sunflowers. Daisies and mums, eucalyptus and cattails flesh out this fall arrangement in all its colors. Goodbye, Fall! The red and green reverie is about to begin.

A lovely post, Anne. We like to hold on to fall as long as we can, too. Up here in the northern end of the state, Thanksgivng Day was a lovely fall day. Now it is rainy/cold, more wintry, snow on the mtn tops.
Wishing you a blessed Christmas season,
Linda
