Hint & Promise
I went out for a short walk this afternoon to check out the Tea Ceremony Museum garden. In a few weeks the trees will be illuminated so that the colors can be enjoyed into the evening. For now the color is just beginning to peek out. I think I almost enjoy this stage as much as the full color stage, because of the promise they represent. The promise that fall is coming

Having grown up in an area where most trees are non-deciduous, I, too, prefer the trees to have some green -- too much color represents for me the approach of a sort of death.
Since we cannot live in perpetual spring or fall, I much prefer winter to summer, so full color doesn't bother me. I think the coming of winter is why fall edges spring out as my favorite season. I love both spring & fall, but fall has a slight edge in the poll.
