Changing Time Zones

Changing Time Zones Last summer we drove to California and changed time zones three times.  It was quite amusing.  Where are we now?  What time is it?  Why did it change?  It’s also quite intriguing.  We have four zones in this one country.   This spring when we traveled to Georgia the kids were surprised that we didn’t change time zones.
