Out of curiosity... how did it end up march 15 at 5:47?

@northy
My official answer is "because Paula said so" lol. Paula's answer: "I got the idea originally from the TOminute (Toronto Minute) and they had 5:47pm as their start time. After some thought, I decided it was a good time, as *most* ppl would be done with work, after daylight savings there was still some decent light to work with, and it wasn't too late in the day that most ppl have packed it in for the day."

It's on the calendar! :) Sorry that I can't add to the country count, though.
March 15th, 2017
I can't add to the country count either, but I set the alarm on my phone to remind me.
March 15th, 2017
@rosiekerr @homeschoolmom
Can't add to the country count because your country is already represented? Or you don't have a facebook? Or I managed to screw something up and the link isn't working?

blue skies...
March 15th, 2017
No blue skies and pretty clouds here in Brisbane, so I went with a macro. I struck it lucky, and came across some cuckoo bees. What timing!

Absolutely! Next Year's event will take place on Thursday, March 15th 2018 at 5:47 p.m. If you have a Facebook account, you can "register" your interest by clicking interested, going etc on the following link and more information and reminders will be provided to you as the date draws nearer. I will certainly provide more information and reminders here on 365 closer to that date for anyone who does not have Facebook access.

@mej2011 Thanks Melissa. I do have a FB account, but don't often use it. I'll have to change my ways, don't want to miss out on interesting stuff like this.
March 17th, 2017
Thanks for pushing this Melissa. I think we all had a lot of fun with it, both here on 365 and on FB. It's on my calendar for next year already!
