and so it begins...

Today is the Autumnal Equinox meaning the day and night will be approximately the same, 12 hours...the sun rose at 6:40 and will set at 6:45...
to put it in more common terms the 'days' are getting shorter...
Get your compass out of your hiking back pack and check its accuracy by watching the sun set due West on the first day of fall in North America...
