PST

It is time for the great winter transition.

We set the clocks back and the early evening goes dark.

We are right under the mountain and, today, the sun 'set' about 430 but tomorrow that means 330.

So, that is the new dog walk time. Another adjustment for Franklin.

And me.

We will sit outside for supper but it will be ten degrees colder because the sun went down that much earlier.

Sweaters.

I told you. The only reason it is warm here is the sun's radiation through the dry air. When the sun goes, the heat goes. Crash. 30 degrees cooler late at night.

On the other hand, it isn't such a big deal. I can make supper in one stretch when we get back from the walk. Franklin can have his supper then too.

The big deal will be the mornings.

I will have my light back! The new 6AM will be the old 7AM!

That is the best part.

All in all a good trade.
