It is Fall Back Time

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni
The 2012 version of Daylight Savings Time ends this coming weekend, so don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour before going to bed Saturday night, Nov. 3.
Technically, you should set your clocks back one hour Sunday, Nov. 4, at 2 a.m. local daylight time, which will then become 1 a.m. local daylight time.
Not all places in the U.S. observe daylight time. In particular, Hawaii and most of Arizona do not use it.  Also this is a good time to remember to change your smoke and CO batteries.  We do get an extra hour of sleep.

Rick and I kayaking during the Schooner Festival went right by the HMS Bounty how we should remember her.  Here is a picture of her going down yesterday.  Very sad.

On Friday took Avery and Cole to the beach.  Cole, my 3 year old grandson, stated, “that is way too much fun for me”  He then told me he wants to do the greasy pole.  I love kids.
