The skies are grey today. The onset of a northwest winter when it's darker more than light, the rain drizzles through the air and bright colors look dim.
It hasn't gotten to that yet - that will be near the end of January.
Now, the bright orange, red and yellow leaves on the trees add a colorful contrast to the grey sky.
They flutter and waft through the air, the leaves, to rest in the gutters and the occasional umbrella. In the mountains though, snowflakes are already starting to fall to cover the fall foliage in its winter coat.
Soon the color will be covered or gone and we will be left with grey.
That is winter in the northwest, but golden is what we see now.
