Spring forward

Daylight Savings Time occurs this year on Sunday March 8. We'll be in the western half of the country traveling west when we "spring forward." Luckily, our cell phones should automatically change the time for us. I'm not sure if this affects our scheduled arrival times or if Amtrak has already worked this out, but I guess we'll find out. This really affects only what bus we take out of Portland to get to Newport.

We need to catch a bus at 5:45 a.m. in Newport on the 11th to make it back to Portland in time to catch our train, and we've been telling ourselves that it's not a big deal because it's an east coast 8:45, but now it's an east coast 7:45. I have a feeling it's still going to feel like 5:45. Luckily, I can sleep on a bus.
