The NDP government here wants to be like Saskatchewan and not observe DST..



Farmers and golf courses in this province don't like the idea.

I heard farmers hate daylight savings.



"Dang said the downsides of switching to daylight time are clear: young children have trouble adjusting, it may lead to an increase in heart attacks, and farmers and ranchers say it interferes with milking and feeding schedules."




...



From the beginning, farmers opposed the plan. They argued workers insisted on working to "town time" and so, with fewer morning daylight hours, wasted an hour or two waiting for dew to dry and then went home before the sun started setting.



Modern farmers have kept up the fight. Thomas Dang's initial news release about the new attempt to scrap daylight time had comments from an egg farmer complaining that it "plays havoc with the natural rhythm of poultry."

When it was introduced here, there was great protest from some people, because they observed that daylight saving caused their curtains and drapes to fade faster.



True story.

We have always enjoyed it. Allowed us to get home, packed and in Galveston before dark on Friday. That way we could put the boat in the water and be ready to fish early Saturday morning without worrying about messing with the boat.....

Yes. We have a house we are rebuilding there. Father-in-law built the house/fish camp in 1968. It's not a big boat. We are building a boat lift so all we do is hit a button and it lowers into the water. It's a shallow water boat only 5.6m long. Works well for the bays.

As far as the fishing as a couple goes, we have lived the life since we got married. For many years we averaged 3 or more weekends a month there. Even when it was cold. One of the reasons we have had such a successful life together is we have a lot in common. I will put her up against almost any average man in fishing....she will kick their ass, been there done that and she made sure I got the t-shirt...LOL

Not livable right now. Getting there. House is on Galveston West Bay. I have been offshore in the Gulf leaving from my house.  Cheaper to take the boat closer to launch. Boats tend to eat a lot of gas.

Complete rebuild. Floor of house was about 10 feet above sea level and now it will be about 13 feet above sea level. That should be high enough unless a cat 5 hurricane hits. Then who knows......

The house is close to the little red x. It's about a 20 mile run to get to the Gulf of Mexico. We rarely go off shore to fish. Stay primarily in the bay system.
