It’s been a terribly busy day around the neighborhood with all sorts of sounds and activity.

The parking lot construction at the high school auditorium, the cutting and mulching of the tree across Shroyer, kids playing across Rockhill, birds, a heavy breeze nudging leaves and wind chimes, and just recently, some trucks seem to be loading or transferring lumber next to the house in the high school’s north parking lot.

People have asked, “doesn’t all the noise of living here disturb you?”

Never. I love the sound energy.

When I hear these sounds I hear “progress.” It’s never just noise.

I hope everyone else is having a noisy day filled with energy.
