Cold November...

The temperature just dropped and with it many of the remaining leaves on the trees.  The ginkgo trees have transformed the ordinary sidewalks into Yellow Brick Roads.  But this is no Emerald City.  It is Gray Gotham.  The shadows are longer, cooler, deeper.  4 o'clock in the afternoon and it's already dark.  It is cold out now and they say it might snow.  Winter is knocking at the door.
