iv been busy on the east coast for a bit so here is an assortment of eye candy that follows...
 its also been a warm coastal California fall here in west Marin along with a harsh dry season. its reminiscent of the hot, dry and perfect burn conditions that accompanied the Inverness fire exactly 18 years ago this past week as told by a client of mine i built a wood shed for up in Marshall. 
also the harvest of local growers has been spectacular and a great season. the fall is bountiful. 
enjoy.
