This morning the sun broke the Roman horizon at 05:59.
It will again break the horizon on the other side of the day at 18:32.
18:45 is the cycle right now for the Ave Maria Bell. I’ll explain it again along the way. The 18:45 cycle stretches from 20 March to 2 April. Of course we go to “daylight savings” so we shall if the adjustment is made or not. Last year they screwed it up.
Also, note that my WordPress app is misbehaving again. That means less posting “on the fly”. Pesky. All sorts of small irritations cropped up because of the migration. We had to shut down some functions to find where the problems were.
One thing we lost I’ll try to put back, since I see in comments elsewhere on the blog, complaining that the comment “preview” is no longer provided. If I can turn that back on without massively slowing down the admin area where I do my work, I will.
