Cycle NC Mountains to Coast Tour Begins October 1st Local Antique Car Club Little Detroit Chapter of AACA hosted an ice cream stop for the Horseless Carriage Club of America. A total of 37 cars, ranging in age from 1910 to 1927 from Virginia, North and South Carolina toured Cleveland and Rutherford counties. Based in Shelby, the two day tour group visited the Haynes Memorial in Cliffside Friday, Sept.15. The pit stop included ice cream served up by Sam Farance with his antique Good Humor Truck. As the group gathered and had a time to cool off from the heat, Cliffside historian Phillip White, was on hand with many local residents to pass on the history of the Textile Industry in Rutherford County. Starting in 1885 Cliffside Mill employed 900 workers. The clock stands as a memorial to R.R. Haynes, With its 19th century technology, it features a four bell scale which rings the Westminster chime sequence. Little Detroit Chapter of the Antique Automobile Club of America, so named after the long time automotive business in Rutherford County, also had a beautiful display of the cars ranging in age 25 years and older.

In the Southern Hemisphere, spring is arriving at this time. Each year there are two equinoxes, the vernal and the autumnal (March and September, respectively). Shortly after the autumnal equinox, days begin getting shorter and the nights get longer. The autumnal equinox always occurs between September 21 and September 24. In 2021, the autumnal equinox takes place on September 22. The word equinox is from the Latin "aequi," meaning "equal," and "nox" or "night." That means that during each equinox the hours of day and night are nearly equal in length across the planet. During the equinox, the part of the Earth that is closest to the sun is the equator, explains History. com. That helps make night and day equal in length. According to the Farmer's Almanac, the Autumnal Equinox on September 22, 2021, arrives at 3:21 p.m. EDT, 2:21 p.m. CDT, 1:21 p.m. MDT, and 12:21 p.m. PDT.
