First Day

Depending where you look or who you listen to, autumn in the northern hemisphere officially starts anywhere between September 21st and 23rd but as it was the autumnal equinox sometime yesterday, I reckon that makes today the first FULL day of autumn. Not that we need the date to go by as the spiders in the garden and the ripe quince growing through the fence from next door are more than enough to convince anyone of the season.
