In late October, the sun doesn't start to bring blue to the black sky until nearly 7:00 am -- and later when storm clouds or fog fill the sky. I set out shortly before 7:00 to see what colors were in the vineyards now and got to see sky colors galore too.

| Clouds, circling in from the south, cut off sunlight to the laguna. |
 |
| Grapes vines wait for the sun to reach them. |
 |
| And now the sky finds its familiar blue. |
 |
| Rolling vineyards decked out in fall's colors |
 |
| This little grouping calls to me! |
 |
| Yup! Farm equipment gets the right of way....... |
 |
| .....including (or maybe especially) this guy. |
 |
| Quintessential colors |
 |
| I see eerie here.... |
 |
| Can't take my eyes off of you.... |
 |
| Death in front of dying? |
There it is, people. NorCal wine country getting ready for winter. The first real fall rain is supposed to roll in tonight. The SF Giants just took the sixth game in the NL championship series - one more game to go before meeting up with Detroit in the World Series. That World Series action just puts the exclamation point on the fall sentence!
