Speaking of legislation...

How 'bout the proposed bill for permanent Daylight Savings Time, meaning an 8:30 AM sunrise time (on the shortest day of the year) for waterfowlers??? Can't wait to roll out at 7 AM instead of 6.

Its always dark when I wake for hunting and dark when we hit the blind. A number on my watch and an hours time wont mean jack to me.

 

[kahunna]

You mean like when we lost hunting days in the season because we could hunt on Sundays?

 

[Tailfeathers]

No, what I was saying was that legal time is based on sunrise and sunset and that no matter what the number is on my watch and clock, doesnt matter to when I get out of bed which is how much time I need to travel and set up decoys before a half hour before sunrise.
Why drag SH into a daylight savings time thread?

 

[Sitndux]

Personally do not want the change to permanent daylight savings time.
I like to hunt before work...work starts at 8:30. No more hunting before work.
If I was retired I wouldn't care.

I wonder what drywall, electricians, flooring, roofers..... will do not starting to work until daylight. That will be a big change.

I get up early so I like it daylight early. People who are lazy like to sleep in.....except for you Kahunna.....you are always tan, rested and ready!

Since I set out the decoys for K anyway, he doesn't roll out to the blind until 9:00 on a good day. Don't let him fool you, this daylight thing won't matter to him.

Just wait till you two guys hit 71 on the old age-o-meter...you will understand! By the way, because of my wife's schedule, I do get up at 5 AM Tues, Wed, Thurs...any points for that?

Carry on...got to go catch a nap, been up for three hours now. Up in time later to work on my tan.

TF - SH/DST not related, just an example of the same type of convoluted logic/reasoning.
