We have a wall clock that has a battery, and that has to be re-set. Like everyone else, we also have to do the microwave; but we often don't have it working anyway. Then the little alarm clock-radio in the bedroom. I think we have to set the clock on the Aerogarden; but we are not sure if it happens automatically or not. I guess we will know by tomorrow morning. I look forward to daylight savings time each year because it gives us extra time in the evening; or at least the illusion of having that.
The day will go by quickly today. After 6" of rain last week, I'm headed outside to do some backyard lawn mowing this morning. Dogs don't like the grass to tickle their behinds! .... and if I don't get with it soon, it will be afternoon.
The Maine legislature is considering putting Maine on Atlantic Time rather than Eastern Time, as we now are, doing away with daylight savings time. I hope they do. Supposedly, Massachusetts is too.
I think we have a four-hour difference with the West Coast now, although I'm not sure. The difference it would make for us is that we won't change our clocks every six months. For six months of the year, our time would be the same as it is now. Then, since we won't change it, there would be a difference of one hour from what we're doing now.
It's confusing...I think that's the way it is with us with Hawaii...half the year it's a 3 hr time difference ...other times it's only 2. I think. Right now it's 11:18a.m. in Fresno...what time is it in Maine? I'm pretty sure Maine is a 3 hr time difference.
Confusing especially when the Time Line passes along the center of a big river, and the guy on one side observes Daylight Savings, but the guy on the other side does not! Thus, in winter, two miles from our house, it is an hour earlier; in summertime, it is the same, as CA sets it's clocks ahead. We do not. My wife's old boss from Phoenix years ago, got in the habit of stopping by here to take us to breakfast, when he came through calling on customers. He loved the breakfast buffet at AVI Casino. One morning, we arrived there just after 7:00AM (our time), and led him to the 24/7 cafe. He questioned not going to the buffet: it opens at 7:00AM. "But it IS 7, he said." Nope. 6:00AM this side of the river! Frank
When we lived in Indiana it was the same thing...my son went to Purdue University which was about a 1.5 hr drive from our house but that town didn't change their clocks like we did so when he came home or I visited it was weird.
