First Day of Fall

The September Equinox or Ember day is today, the 22nd.

Ember day in Latin means: "four seasons of the year"
This season, the start of Autumn, is when the sun shines directly on the equator and the
length of day and night is equal--12 hours each

Today is also a Christian Holy Day, set aside for fasting and prayer.

Fall, a perfect time of year to go for  ride!

on fall spirits.
