What Time Is It?

What time is it?

If you have ever flown across the US, you probably like I, marveled at the size of our country. From the eastern tip of Maine to the western shores of Washington, the continental US spans 4 time zones. Now if you want to throw Alaska and Hawaii into the mix, now you are talking about more time zones than I have fingers and toes to count upon.

Add daylight savings into the mix and things can really get confusing. Some counties and cities participate in this semi-annual event, while others do not. Get states that are on the border between time zones, it is easy to see how one can really get befuddled.

And so goes the ongoing saga of time. While looking at the clock on this cooktop, I began to wonder; Does anybody really know what time it is? Does anyone really care? Is it a new date and time code? Do we need to pull out our Captain Marvel decoder ring to decipher the hidden message? One thing is for certain, no matter what time zone you are in, we will always want to know the age old question, "What time is it?"

What time is it?
