All the leaves are brown and the Amanitas are popping. It’s time to fall back on Capitol Hill.

Sunday brings the 2 AM end of the Daylight Saving Time cycle that started in spring. Most clocks these days fall back an hour automagically but this post is here to help make sure you aren’t deceived by your microwave come Sunday morning.

There have been increased efforts to stay permanently on DST. The so-called Sunshine Protection Act was supposed to save us from the twice a year jolt to the human nervous system of flip-flopping the hour of the day but has stalled out in Congress.

For now, you’ll need to find a way to keep in synch. CHS recommends a quiet mushroom walk in the leaves.
