I rather like the positioning of the daylight versus the clock. The jolt of the change, not so much.There will be more evening range trips, more walks, and more time on the porch with a good beer in hand.

Southern Illinois University Hosts Library ‘Nap-Ins’ To Have ‘Dreams Of Diversity’
Southern Illinois University’s Morris Library is now hosting “nap-ins” to help students dream of diversity.
Marissa Amposta, a “student coordinator” at the university is holding four two-hour naps in the library this month to “internally generate student dreams of diversity,” the Daily Egyptian reports.
However, I’ve spent the past week enjoying the company of our son who’s home on spring break, and am reminded that not all college students have been raised to be snowflakes.

Last Sunday I shot the monthly Cavalier IDPA match. Despite the 70° plus temperatures the day before, the thermometer on match day barely made it out of the mid-40’s. However the sun was shining and the bay berms blocked the wind, so all in all it was a most pleasant morning for shooting.
Four fun stages of shooting awaited us. The first stage consisted of two short strings of fire. The first had three targets, each requiring two body and one head shot each. The second string presented four targets, three shot in the open, the last around a wall. The tricky things about these short, close courses is they need to be shot fast, but it’s easy to go too fast and rack up points down.
Stage two was interesting, with two quite distinct options for completing the course of fire. One could take a few long, tight shots, and reduce the of movement or run a zig-zag course around a bunch of barrels to get to closer shooting positions. I didn’t see anyone opt for the long shots, although I did hear that someone on another squad did just that.
After navigating the barrels, there were a couple targets visible through some tires. At the next shooting position, a couple targets were visible around the right side of a wall. The final point of cover had three targets shot from the left of a wall.
