DAYLIGHT SAVINGS BEGINS! (well in most states and Baja Norte)
Just a heads up that on Sunday March 8, 2 AM (2015), California and Baja California (Norte) SPRING AHEAD 1 Hour and lose an hour sleep!
Arizona and Hawaii don't touch their clocks, and a few other places... The rest of Mexico changes a month after Baja Norte... except I think Sonora
stays matched to Arizona?
Let me see if I got this right. Today all of Baja is the same time zone, tomorrow there will be a one hour change at Guerrero Negro, and in a month
it will be all one zone again?
If so, that would explain some of my confusion on a spring trip two years ago.
I hate daylight savings time in Anchorage! It is in the wrong time zone to start with (geographically) and this time of year people wind up going to
school or work in the dark, and watch the sun go down about 9 pm.
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!
For the U.S. and its territories, Daylight Saving Time is NOT observed in Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the
Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, and Arizona. The Navajo Nation participates in the Daylight Saving Time policy, even in Arizona, due to its
large size and location in three states.

A quite large geographical area with a significant population percentage within the borders of Arizona DO change their clocks --- The Navajo Nation.
But the Hopi Nation within the boundaries of the Navajo Nation do not change their clocks.
I wish they would leave it alone on the Savings setting here. It is already more of the year in Daylight Savings than in standard time. Who likes
coming home from work in the dark or not having any sunlight after work?

Me! Even though I no longer work I remember coming home from work dog tired. Gimmie some food, turn on the tube, and go to sleep. The mornings however
are my favorite time of the day. The earlier the sun comes up the better! I always wake up before dawn and enjoy the mornings. Evenings? Pfft.
