    I heart daylight savings. Didn't realize it was just around the corner.

    Life after work....

    will soon return

    Will gladly trade the daylight on my morning commute for time to ride my bike after work.

    Yeeee. It was 50 degrees in Bozeman today. It'll get colder again but I welcome the return of daylight after work.

    They'd have to be pretty strong to melt 5 feet of snow in front of me as I ride.


    That would definitely be cool though.

    What was all that about anyway? I for one am not stoked on the new earlier daylight savings time. 3/15 is just too early. Mostly I just hate waking up in the full darkness.

    But I am stoked on extra playtime after work. Hopefully I can bend my knee enough to pedal a bike in a couple weeks
    I'm so hardcore, I'm gnarcore.

    Well I guess it could have been good or bad. They were voting to go with one time year round, I assume that they would have gone with DST all the time but I guess they potentially could have gone with no DST all the time like AZ and that would have really sucked.

    ^^It was my understanding that it would've done away with DST altogether, like AZ. Which would've sucked. The only reasoning I've heard for the bill was to further separate Utah from federal governance.

    I personally love the earlier time just for the extra daylight after work. Never minded going to work in the dark but I absolutely hate getting out of work to darkness. Sounds like it's a dead issue here for a while, they voted it down 6-3.

    Actually you are right, I did a little reading and the Utah bill apparently just wanted to go with one time year round either DST or Mountain all the time. But, there is currently a federal regulation preventing states from observing DST year round so I guess that wasn't really an option. Maybe they can go DST 364 days a year and pick some random Sunday at the end of Dec to go Mountain to comply to the federal regulation.

    I'm a dawn patroller and I don't like DST. Seems like a lot more people will get out at 6:30 than 5:30.
