The heat of summer con-.
tinues into, Autumn. Tradi-
tionally the dead leaves have
dried up and fallen,however,
different from recent years past
the living vegitation; crops,
trees, grass, all that Oregonians
know to be green is also dry and
dying. A drought has consum
ed the Northwest and we will
very likely go several more mon
ths without significant rainfall.
Still the incredible beauty of fall
remains. The brilliant shades of
orange, gold, and brown,
delicately weave throughout the
changing season. There is some
good in everything.
