Time Change
A reminder for All Voices' American writers and fans...
Don't forget to set you clocks BACK one hour tomorrow for Standard Time. Saturday October 31 marks the end of Daylight Savings Time. Beginning Sunday the sun will set one hour earlier in many parts of the nation.
The official time change takes place at 2am local time, so set your clocks BACK one hour before going to bed.
Personally I HATE the time change; I like the extra sun. The days are short enough up north as it is!

Fall is here in North Carolina
By: heeeheee
The leaves have peaked and are falling off. Get out the blower every day and blow them into the woods, for fodder for all the little weeds that come to haunt me in the Spring.
