Spring Forward....It's right around the Corner!

It's always a sure sign of spring when we are finally able to set the clocks ahead and "spring forward" into daylight savings time.  While I'm not particularly fond of the extended darkness of the morning (for what only seems like the first couple of weeks) the extra daylight hours at the end of the day are a nice trade off.

Spring

More time to take the dogs out for a walk at the end of the day, or go for a nice bike ride; or.......to get a jump on the yardwork.

This year, remember to set your clocks ahead by one hour, before going to bed on Saturday, March 12, so when you wake on the 13th, they will already reflect the correct time.

Looking forward to spring....can't wait!

Carla, I also love going to daylight savings time.  The longer daylight hours at the end or the day are a huge plus for me.
