Golden October, make that November
The Germans refer to the time of year when the leaves of the trees and grape vine have changed to yellow as "Golden October". Unfortunately, It didn't come in October this year, and it isn't as brilliant this year as I've seen in the past. We're not sure of the reason. It has been dry this summer and fall. And while it has been cool, it has not exactly been cold. Some of the trees seem to just go from green to brown. And the vineyards still are showing some green in their leaves.
In any case, we are seeing some glimpses of it this week.
