The
City of Trees has plenty of fall colors, but most locals are oblivious
to them. Most of the color is imported, with names like liquid
amber and ginkos, providing much of the visual delight.
About downtown are older trees, with a good history of turning. These park trees on the left were shot on November 14, 2002, by Pete Yamagata.

The Tower Bridge provides a new sight, being painted gold as per an informal local "vote." Used mainly now by fairly light, local traffic, it was once the westerly gateway to Sacramento. Photo taken November 13, 2002 by Pete Yamagata.
