There is one in particular, at the lower gate of the Portland Japanese Garden. I came upon it several years ago, in full golden glory, in late afternoon light. It was magnificent!!! Of course I didn't have a camera, so I can't share the experience. I'm so glad you were better prepared. :)Anna Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02353084595743927603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-41500690953079211022015-12-09T11:52:09.747-08:002015-12-09T11:52:09.747-08:00Gorgeous!

Imagine driving eastward, on a very wide street with a large central median, a 5,000 foot, often snow-capped, mountain peak in the background, bright blue skies and barren branches of trees thrusting skyward and puddles of brilliant gold upon green grass surrounding them. This is Huntington Drive in San Marino around December 10. My favorite view. Alas this gorgeous scene is no more. I cry. It is a casualty of the water restrictions preventing the irrigation of median strips. So I am doubly thankful to see your post.Jane Stronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05016381279699618539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-53187508360402766192015-12-09T05:25:33.157-08:002015-12-09T05:25:33.157-08:00That really is a fabulous shade of yellow!
