And then fall showed up

It was only three days past Labor Day when I noticed the air started smelling like fall.  Local schools started and so did the sounds of school bells in the distance.  Tomatoes have been pouring out of my garden and local melons are here.  And the colors in the garden are some of my favorites -- red, gold, orange, and blue.  Fall is making its approach. 

We recently had a chance to hike around Discovery Park mid-week when the park felt virtually empty.  I had my camera along and couldn't resist looking for as many seeds and fruits of this transitional season as I could find.  Here's what I saw.
