Fall Foliage

At this time of year, people tend to tout the beauty of the East Coast, the Northwest, and other parts of the country that get that gorgeous fall foliage. They tend to look down on California a bit... I mean, we have our fantastic year-round weather, and for that we sacrifice fall color. Right?

Wrong.

At least when you're talking about the Central Coast. Because our surrounding vineyards afford us a good stretch of magnificent color in the fall. And wouldn't you know, Thanksgiving weekend turned out to be one of our postcard weather weekends. So we got the benefit of the famous California weather and the colorful backdrop people usually associate with colder climates. Lucky us.

This great family got to take advantage of it all, and they got some pretty special images to boot. Unrelated side note: I predict that these kids are going to grow up to be absolute stunners in the looks department.
