I thought we had it rough in Florida, but I was proven wrong this weekend.

I’ve been lamenting about the time change, and bitching about how the sun is already setting at 5:30, and it’s completely dark by 6pm. Little did I know how good we have it during the winter! Here on the gulf coast, we’re at the far western side of the eastern time zone. We get maximum daylight during the winter months.

While in Las Vegas this weekend, I couldn’t help but notice how dark it got in the afternoon. By 4:30, it was effectively night time. That may work great in a city like Vegas, which looks better in the dark, but I don’t know how I’d deal with it if I lived there!
