Fall! (?)

Last night, for the first time since April? I turned off the swamp cooler, and then I put on a sweatshirt! Could it be that Fall has finally arrived in Southern California? The weather report says yes…until the weekend, when it will be back up in the 90s. Sigh.

Anyway, here are a couple of Autumn-oriented sketches. The asters always bloom in October (I call them my yearly birthday gift), and as McSweeney's says (much more profanely than I will here), "It's decorative gourd season." Let's celebrate it. But not with pumpkin latte, thanks. (Ick.)
