A+++ Excellent as usual.

Gorgeous day here. Sunny, cool breeze for my morning walk. Nice. Except my MP3 player died and I had to finish my walk without Jonah.

Thank you!

I don’t own one of those, but this is the middle of nowhere and the natural sounds are pleasant to listen to. Any noise of any significant volume can be heard for a couple of miles out here-especially music. You wouldn’t believe some of the things I’ve heard being discussed by workers who are grading driveways, building decks, etc on nearby properties as I’m just hiking through the woods. And yes, sometimes I do stop in a hidden spot to sit down and listen/eavesdrop while I eat the fruit or sandwich I’ve brought with me...

On a nice evening, when windows are open I can walk out in the yard and tell what music is coming from which neighbor’s house on the road 1/2 mile up the hill, never mind right on this road. Right now, these green cicada things start rasping back and forth to each other starting at dusk and not ending until just before dawn. It is a very pleasant noise, but loud.
