The weather turned cooler, even cold at night, until the leaves of the tall rubber trees near the house all turned orange and were blown away.
I thought it was lovely to have such a rest from the hot weather, and was amazed there could be fall weather so far from the north.
Only a week later I noticed what must have been the color green about the branches that had only just lost their lives. It grew daily until there could be no doubt--the trees had all new leaves again!
This surprised me the very most, for I had supposed there would not be any new leaves for months. I drank my coffee in bewilderment and went away hopeful.
