If you don't have a workday with regular hours the important thing is the number of daylight hours...when they occur is irrelevant.
Bring on the summer solstice!

The time change means that Gym rats will start looking at the outdoors.
As soon as the snow melts this is gonna break out! the trail is in
I have freed 36+ lines some on lead some on top rope,5.0-5.12,
five yellow Blazes incuding the tree in the fore ground.
The six lanes wide road it sits on, puts this rock in plain view,
Lots of legal parking on state land too.
granite, 70 feet and higher good pro,
Tradman? it needs boltzs to count on the east coast?
Please come in down and steal all my not first ascents.
the two pictures above are on the same formation
I have no Boltzs,
Some more of 'mine' is all somewhere that climbing would be frowned upon,
due to rickety real estate values.I do not let it stop development, a real estate license, can be helpful.
Stacks of good lines wait in the woods,
Gauntlet thrown
Happy spring

I love it! Living on the western edge of the time zone and at 46.8 degrees north means long days. For about a month, I literally have two days in one during the week. I'll get out of work at 1530 and have about 6.5 hours of daylight. Although, if the PNW has any kind of fire season, we can end up with hella smokey days that lasted 2.5 months one year. Anyway, I likes the time change.

Daylight savings??? I'm ready for it. My internal clock sets itself way before the actual clocks roll back. I'm up at 4:00 am every morning pacing around waiting for the sun. Bring it on.

Bush changed the dates of DST by four weeks

On Monday August 8, 2005 President Bush signed into law a broad energy bill that extended Daylight Saving Time by four weeks beginning in 2007. Since 1986 the United States had observed Daylight Saving Time from the first Sunday in April through the last Sunday in October. The provisions of the bill call for Daylight Saving Time to begin three weeks earlier on the second Sunday in March and end on the first Sunday in November. Read our special section about the extension of Daylight Saving Time.

Back in the day, in San Diego, the first afternoon of daylight savings time marked the official start of the we-can-climb-after-work-now! season at the Santee Boulders. Locals would swarm the place at 5:00 and climb till dark. Pretty awesome times.

I am in favor of it equating to the vernal, and autumnal equinoxes.
