That’s right this Sunday! So that means this Saturday March 13th, before you go to bed set your clocks an hour EARLIER!!

The phrase “Spring forward, Fall back” helps me and others I’m sure remember!

In the Spring you spring forward with an extra hour

In the Fall you fall back leaving an hour behind

Kinda silly but once you hear it, it’s hard to forget!

There have been changes to Day Light Savings as recently as 2007, You can get more info on those changes and reasoning here-  http://geography.about.com/cs/daylightsavings/a/dst.htm

Did you know the idea of Day Light Savings goes back all the way to Benjamin Franklin! In 1784 he wrote an essay entitled “an Economical Project” and outlined his ideas, kind of interesting read. http://www.webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/c.html

I’m soo ready for evening walks again!!!!
