But autumn is coming. First harbinger this year (last weekend): the spiders. Still a bit small, but they're everywhere.

Second harbinger (this morning): early morning fog. Not much, but it was there.

Third harbinger (not seen yet): cedar fronds turning orange to brown. A few have, but it's not clear if this is for autumn or due to other causes.

The leaves won’t even begin to fall here, until the end of October to mid-November. Then it may take all “winter” for them to drop. They’ll probably be pushed out by the new leaves, closer to spring.

Well, that’s encouraging. We have spiders, too - big wolf spiders about 1-1/2” across, just strolling around the rooms after we’ve been out. About one a day!
