Is it winter?

It looks like winter in the Fullerton's garden. This morning I was strolling around with my camera because the morning light was so pretty. We have this little corner on the back of the house that has this wooden arch with a hanging angel statue. It looked so cold and wintery! Truth is, the caterpillars constantly eat the vine and we can't seem to keep them at bay. In the meantime it sits skeletal and bare.
I'm convinced it is soon going to snow.
