Autumn in now quite advanced, and although the last leaves are still hanging onto trees, their situation is bleak. Brown and grey are the dominating colors, with some relief from the evergreens. But there are isolated spots of color still occasionally in the gardens. We are waiting for snow, and marks for the snowploughs have been planted by the roadside.
