September 22, Tuesday, is a special day because of two things: it's my hubby's birthday and it is also the first day of fall 2009 or the autumnal equinox 2009. The autumnal equinox is when there lenght of day and night are of equal lenght. It is also the time of the year when the sun appears to cross the celestial equator. The autumnal equinox is regarded as the beginning of autumn. Autumn is the most colorful time of the year in those places where there are four seasons.
