Daylight Savings

For most people, the switch to daylight savings time is a brutal change. At my 7:15 exercise class this morning there was much grumbling about being wrenched from sleep at an ungodly hour. For me, springing forward is a chance to operate on a clock more in tune with the rest of the world. On Sunday, I woke up at 5 and was thrilled that I didn’t have to berate myself for waking up at 4 again. Last night, I stayed up until nearly 10 without a problem.

Two individuals standing close together on a beach, watching a calm sea at sunset with soft pastel colors in the sky.

The best part of the time change, though, is that for a few weeks, it will be extra easy to catch the rosy gold light of dawn during our morning swims.

Here are some swim pictures from the spectacular spring we are having:

The moon was the gift that kept giving this month. Beginning with a magical full moonrise:
