I live on the eastern edge of Central Standard time. The time changes maybe an hour east of me.
At 3:00 p.m. the sun is low in the sky.
At 4:00 p.m. it's sunset.
At 5:00 p.m. it's pitch black outside.
I don't know that I'll ever get used to this.
My whole life I was just a tad west of the middle of the CST zone.
