The answers to today's Strands, game #602, are PUMPKINS CORN FOLIAGE FOOTBALL 
HARVEST ORCHARDS SPANGRAM: AUTUMN My rating: Easy My score: Perfect 

The theme was a little less cryptic than usual today, so I immediately went 
searching for AUTUMN. Rather than buried under a pile of leaves it was easily 
visible and a simple left to right. 

This job done, I went about finding the most obvious words before looking for 
the more obscure ones; well, obscure to me at least. I doubt I would have 
thought of CORN if it was not encompassed by PUMPKINS, while ORCHARDS took me 
much longer than it should have. 

I once went on a FOLIAGE coach tour when I visited Boston some years ago and 
the guide was so minimal with his descriptions of the trees that when we 
passed a particularly attractive display he would simply shout color, which 
he did on and off for the following three hours. 

I guess he started out giving descriptions of everything, but over time 
realized all people wanted was a warning of when to take a photo. I hear his 
voice in my head every year when the leaves turn.Color! Yesterday's NYT
