Dave, I remember when you were preparing for some visitors, who were going to borrow your camera for pictures while touring your locale. You were experimenting with the settings for in-camera jpegs that would have the best results with the lighting and colors of common subjects of interest in your area. I suspect that I'm not the only person who remembers just how good the pictures were you posted that were using the settings you arrived at!
Another way to think of this is that when one of us buys a Pentax dslr, we are paying for and getting a Raw image processor right in it. If we find a the internal settings that result in processing the sort of jpegs we like, that isn't much different from finding those settings in a post-processing program. If keeping things simple works, it works.

K-R update:
I'm trying the Portrait option, with the Hue slider inside of it set at +1. Several early morning shots at least didn't present any obvious strange surprises. Of course, with the sun low, and yellower, I don't know how much effect it was having. Although, I suspect that the Auto white balance mitigated some of that.
