Depending where you are, I am wondering what will happen to fall this
year. Usually all the trees outside my windows are starting to change
colour but this year they are still firmly green, though looking a bit
tired due to lack of rain. I know that many leaves have fallen
because I can see through the leaves to the houses on the street below
us, somehow I think we are not going to have fall colours this year.
