Light in the Dark Season

Seattle is in the midst of what the weather geeks call the Dark Season. Rain is forecast for the foreseeable future. My pepper and petunia plants are waterlogged and should be disposed of if it ever stops raining long enough for me to do so without soaking the floors. Still there is light. The leaves are in full color right about now. The trees across the river from us are bright yellow. Other trees and shrubs around town are red, crimson, and orange. A little light until winter descends.
