It's all a little annoying!! OK it's a LOT annoying. Sorry your having the issue @farmerjan, but glad it isn't just my machine or imagination.

Eh....

If you look at a time zone map...Alaska "should" be in at least 3 time zones, maybe even 5.

But we thought that was stupid.... so except for a couple of islands way super far out to the west, we are ALL on the same time zone.

So sure... they see the sun rise over in the state capital maybe 3 hours before they see it in Dillingham... but ya know what? Nobody cares!

8am is 8am all across the state!

Pool is almost winterized, just need to airlock the bottom drain, hay is moved. But didn't get any wood moved. DST sucks... Indiana used to not confirm to the silliness.... we are one county south and east in Eastern time, though only an hour from Chicago . so fast time/slow time are common terms used locally... drives me batty but not much we can do.

Good point.... something to think about.

Coffee is on. Trail ride planned for this afternoon, might be the last for a while, but going to take advantage of the 50° temps this afternoon.

You can't do anything about the time zones, that is pretty much set, and I get that.

Not necessarily, Russia used to have 16 time zones, only 11 now And they don't do DST as of 2011 (according to Wikipedia)

I finished my coffee, had to go to DD's and take the two little girls to day care. Son in law is sick and didn't think he could make it. Was glad to step up and help. I'll catch up on BYH, do chores and see what the day brings.

Yeah...our midwife house check when we lived in the cabin... I was worried. I asked her at what point she would refuse a home birth... she said she had only once, in a cabin so small they ate on the bed, and it showed! and of course the wood stove was 3 feet from the bed.
