Lost an hour to DST

[lman]

But think about the extra daylight you’ll have after work.

I'll be in bed. 4 a.m. comes too early.

Little over 3 months start losing day light again.

When we were younger, we used to drive up to Tower Hill at Warren Dunes State Park to watch the sunset. The park closed at 9 but sunset wasn't until around 9:45. It was ridiculous.

We now go to Weko Beach in Bridgman, MI. for the past 30 years to watch sunsets. On most evenings, a bugler plays taps at sunset from the balcony of the pavilion. The crowd shuts up, faces the water, and all watch the sunset and listens to taps. It's a really nice experience.

Then I lost another hour or so setting my clocks ahead. It seems like I do this every spring...

Losing time? After living in Arizona ( where they don't adjust clocks twice a year), I do not reset my clocks for day light savings time anymore. My computer does it automatically and the atomic clock on my weather station does also.
Never been confused about what time it is. I guess I will see how that goes as I get a little older.

I don't like heat, so not having that extra hour in the AM to get things done before going to work really sucks.

I use LED headlamps. You’ll never miss the daylight at 5-6AM again.

My weather station does adjust for DST, but for some reason it's off by a couple weeks. Not sure why, I'm sure there's some setting, but haven't found it.
Got probably half a dozen clocks to reset.

I lose the whole day, time wasted setting all the roosters ahead one hour.

I think we should just split the difference and fall back only 30 minutes next time and leave it that way. We would not be the only place to be off by fraction of an hour to GMT.

A little bit of trivia: Clocks in Newfoundland in eastern Canada are 3 hours 30 minutes behind GMT. Nepal, India and Myanmar also have time zones that are staggered 30 minutes.
