September is a month full of fun holidays. First of all, we have Labor Day on the first Monday of the month. This celebration of the working class commemorates the end of summer and the start of fall. The month also marks the autumn equinox on the 22nd. It is also the month when President Abraham Lincoln issued his Emancipation Proclamation. In addition, September 22 marks the day that President Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for his role in the infamous "Watergate" scandal..
