When you set your alarm to wake you up around 8am, and you’re from Denver but staying in Portland, make sure that the time-keeping device you set the alarm on is the one you switched to Pacific Coast time, or you get woken up an hour too early, tired, grumpy, and not realizing you’ve got another hour to sleep until it’s already an hour later.
Just a thought. Something that occured to me… this morning… at 7am.
