A Wise Old Man Once Said...




When told the reason for Daylight Saving time the old Indian said...
"Only a white man would believe that you could cut a foot off the top of a blanket
and sew it to the bottom of a blanket and have a longer blanket."

Wise old Indian.
I suppose I'd better look this Daylight Savings time thing up...

Amen. Although, and this is very true, while the state of Arizona does NOT observe Daylight Savings Time, the Navajo Nation (lying almost entirely in Arizona) DOES. The Hopi Nation, fully surrounded by the Navajo Nation, does NOT. Weird, huh?

Hmmm … I’ve always wondered about Daylight Savings Time myself and kind of agree with the wise old man you write of here.
Hugs and blessings,
